Composed of a teapot, a communal cup and six teacups, the cup is round at the top and square at the bottom so that the subtle shape of the teapot dovetails with the teacup, urging the user to be sincere and lead an authentic life, and to pay attention to individuality. The set is made of Lao Yen Clay, which is known to soften water and improve taste.
