Bio:
Chinese tea cups with built-in strainers and lids became especially widespread in the second half of the 20th century, when they were mass-produced for household use. They combine functionality with decorative traditions, often featuring colorful overglaze enamels or classic blue-and-white designs. This type of cup continues to be used in Chinese tea culture and today serves as a collectible reflecting the design language of its time.
