Yongle-Style Scrolling Lotus Ya Shou Cup

$229.90

This Yongle-style Ya Shou cup draws on an imperial Ming-dynasty form while remaining a contemporary interpretation. Thick walls and a gently flared rim give it a satisfying weight in the hand—the origin of the name “Ya Shou,” or “pressing-hand cup.”

Motif & Form Form: Classic Ya Shou profile with a stable, substantial feel.
Motif: Scrolling lotus, symbolizing continuity, purity and enduring prosperity.
Style: Inspired by porcelain associated with the Yongle period, not presented as an antique object.
Use: A personal cup for gongfu tea and focused tasting.

A historically informed piece that balances ceremonial presence with practical daily use.
