Teacup — Serie Smalto

Anchee’s Collection
Teacup No. 02 — Smalto

Defined by balance and restraint.

This teacup expresses the core of Serie Smalto: ornament held in discipline. The rounded bowl and stable base create visual calm and a comfortable, steady grip—so the botanical motifs read as measured accents, never excess.
Gloss white glaze gives the hand-applied detailing clean definition, while the deep green–glazed saucer anchors the set with quiet weight and composure. Gold-accented rim and handle sharpen the silhouette, adding clarity without competing with form.
Fired above 1,350°C and held for 19 continuous hours, the ceramic achieves stability and surface cohesion—built to endure repeated everyday service in both private interiors and hospitality settings.
