Why is the Wuchang purple clay host cup an excellent customized gift? ——A heartfelt choice with both cultural depth and practical value
1. Cultural genes: a living heritage carrying the oriental aesthetics of life
The material embodiment of the "Five Constant Virtues" philosophy
The Five Constant Virtues of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and trustworthiness are concretized through the design of the vessel shape (e.g., the five-sided cup symbolizes the five virtues)
Zisha is highly consistent with the spirit of "harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility" of the tea ceremony. Japanese tea ceremony master Sen no Rikyu once collected Ming Dynasty purple clay vessels
In 2023, the British Museum's "Chinese Life Aesthetics Exhibition" will use purple clay cups as core exhibits
Reconstruction of contemporary cultural symbols
New Chinese design: The "Five Constant Virtues Qiankun Cup" launched by a certain brand in collaboration with the Forbidden City sells 200,000 sets a year
Metaverse extension: A digital collection platform issues 3D purple clay cup NFTs, and physical + virtual combination gifts emerge
2. Practical revolution: subverting the user experience of traditional tea utensils
Advantages of material science verification
Porosity test: The water absorption rate of real purple clay is 3.5%-4.2% (Jingdezhen porcelain is only 0.5%), perfectly balancing heat preservation and Breathable
Cup maintenance data: After using it for 1 hour a day, the contact angle of the cup wall decreases by 15° after 3 months, and the tea soup is more evenly soaked
Modern workplace scenario solutions
