Inspired by tea bowls used in the Japanese tea ceremony, this small white tea bowl is made from a high-fire porcelain made from the purest kaolin in the world -- from a mine in New Zealand. It is a durable and extremely translucent porcelain. It was fired to over 2200 degrees for strength and durability. It is vitrified so it wouldn't leak even if left unglazed. Glazed inside and over about half of the outside with a food-safe clear glaze.
Great for warming your hands around a hot cup of tea or clam chowder or stuffing your face with Haagen-Dazs or as waterproof container for that little potted cactus in the ugly plastic pot, or as a candle holder.
Approximately 3 1/4 inches high and 3 1/2 inches wide. Holds almost a cup.
Food-safe and okay in the dishwasher and microwave.
At the time of writing this there were 8 in stock. The one, or more, you get may or may not include the one pictured above. They are all similar but not exactly alike.
If you buy more than one item the shipping may be more than it should be. If it is I will combine the shipping and refund the overcharge. If you want an estimate of the actual shipping before buying contact me.
Payments
I accept Paypal, credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Wallet, etc.
Shipping from United States
Orders are very carefully packed and shipped the next business day. In the states I ship Priority Mail, Parcel Select, Priority Mail Express, or UPS.
I ship Internationally to many countries. I do not ship to some countries where I've had problems with delivery, customs, or insurance, or other retailers have reported problems with lost shipments (such as Italy, Russia, and Brazil). Internationally I ship Priority Mail International and Priority Mail Express International.
In order to pack pots to prevent the Post Office and UPS from damaging them, they have to be very carefully packed with a lot of packing material, so shipping is expensive, especially internationally.
If you buy multiple items the shipping charge may be considerably more than the actual cost. If it is I will send you a refund for the overcharge. If you are buying multiple items and think the shipping charge is too much, let me know, but keep in mind that shipping pottery is very expensive because of the weight of fired clay and its fragility.
The closer you live to Georgia, the cheaper the shipping.
Refunds
Customer Satisfaction Guarantee: If, for any reason, you are not happy with your purchase, return the pottery (undamaged, carefully packed and insured) within 10 days of receipt for a full refund of the purchase price. Shipping is not refunded.
Shipping both ways is refunded if the problem is caused by a mistake on my part or a defect in the pottery. Again, it must be returned within 10 days of receipt (You have 10 days to ship it back. It may take 15 or so days for us to receive it.)
If the pottery arrives damaged due to shipping, put the pottery back in the box packed the way it was before you opened it and contact me so that I can file a claim with the USPS or UPS.
