Blue-and-White Cat Master Cup – Flint-Red Gongfu Tea Cup

Fu Lu Cup

A hand-painted master cup (主人杯) in blue-and-white — a cat, brushed in cobalt and touched with flint red, drawn across a small cup made for the person who pours the tea. Five cup shapes, each finished in its own gift box.


In gongfu tea, the master cup (主人杯) is the cup the host keeps for themselves — larger than the tasting cups passed to guests, and chosen with care because it will be held, rinsed, and refilled all through a session. It is the most personal piece on the tea table.


The motif is a cat — painted in underglaze cobalt blue on white porcelain, with flint-red accents that warm the blue. The cat is shown sniffing the tea (闻香), the way a cat investigates anything new with a careful nose.


Five cup shapes: Fu Lu Cup (福禄, fortune and prosperity), Zen Cup (禅定, meditative form), Flared-Rim Cup (反口), Flower-Rim Cup (花口), Bud Cup (花苞).


Handmade in Jingdezhen, China. Each cup arrives in its own gift box. Hand wash with warm water and air-dry; avoid abrasive scrubbers. Each cup is painted by hand, so the cat's markings and flint-red accents vary slightly from cup to cup.
