Raw 'Autumn ring' Wood Fired Ceramic Tea Tray

Handmade in Jingdezhen, this low ceramic tea coaster is individually wood fired, creating a striking transition of colour across its rounded form. The surface moves from warm ochre and golden amber into a deep plum-brown band around the rim, with subtle speckling and traces of the kiln atmosphere throughout. Its simple, slightly raised edge gives the piece a sculptural quality while helping catch stray drops of tea during brewing. Designed for a single gongfu tea cup or teapot, it works equally well as a small cup stand on a tea table or as part of a more minimal solo brewing setup. Handmade and individually wood fired, so variations in colour, glaze and firing marks are part of its character.
