Handthrown Stoneware Tea Jar - Chun Blue

This stoneware tea jar is handmade in Chicago by ceramicist Anne Terpstra. A sturdy stoneware with glazed interior and exterior, this jar is ideal for storing puerhs and other teas for aging. The lid is heavy and well-fitted enough to protect from environmental dust, yet it is not threaded and the jar is not airtight, allowing the tea leaves to "breathe" and evolve over time. Chun Blue is a celadon glaze that originated in China during the Song Dynasty.
