This teacup with a high foot was made in the image of teacups from the Ming dynasty in China. It is thought that the high-footed vessels were made so that horsemen of the Yuan dynasty could use them stably even on horseback. Later, even in the Ming dynasty, it seems that they continued to be used for ceremonies and special occasions. Not only for tea, but also for liquor and wine. How about using it as a vessel for celebrations and special occasions?
