功夫茶具 · 聚焦宜興
在你動手之前，先一步形塑茶湯的器皿
你已沖泡特定的茶，需要的是那件不會令其失色的一器 — 不是琳瑯滿目的壺店。Tea.equipment 正是為此決策的目錄 — *zǐshā* (紫砂) 壺、瓷蓋碗、公道杯、*chá hé* (茶荷) 展示船 — 每件均來自指名匠人，並附上現役侍茶師撰寫的養護指南，隨件寄出。

Six categories, one ritual
每一次功夫茶席最終都歸結為少數幾種形制 — 選擇取決於泥料、釉面、容量，以及每件器皿在多次沖泡中蓄熱的方式。

採購精選
The people who match leaf to clay
我們的器材推薦，源自親訪工作室的專業人員 — 而非泛泛之輩。下方每位指名採購者，皆經手其親自實測的器皿。
I will not stock a pot whose maker I haven't met. Not as a marketing line — as a practical limit. If a customer writes in three years asking why the lid has hairlined, I need to be able to phone the workshop and ask.

A kettle is a promise about temperature. A scale is a promise about weight. My job is to make sure that when our editors taste a tea and write about it, the promises underneath them are the same ones every customer gets at home.

如何使用本站
Three paths in, one cabinet out
Start with a 110ml porcelain gaiwan, a glass fairness pitcher, and two tasting cups. We have a curated starter shelf at €120 — and free leaf via tea.gratis to brew in it.
Read the clay guide before you buy. *Zhū ní* for oolong, *zǐ ní* for aged pu-erh, *duàn ní* for white and yellow. Volume matters more than ornament.
We supply restaurants and tearooms with matched sets — 12 to 60 covers — through the wholesale desk at shop.thetea.app. Lead time three weeks.
購買前須知
Questions we get most weeks
How do I season a new Yixing teapot?
Rinse with boiling water, brew the tea you intend to dedicate to it, and pour the liquor over the outside for the first three sessions. Full method on the Yixing guide page.
One pot, one tea — is it really necessary?
For unglazed clay, yes. The pores hold oils from previous brews. Dedicate a *zhū ní* pot to oolong and a *zǐ ní* pot to ripe pu-erh — never cross them.
Where do your pots actually come from?
Dīngshān (Yixing) workshops for clay, Jingdezhen for porcelain, Fújiàn co-ops for bamboo. Every listing names the workshop. No anonymous stock.
Can I learn the ritual itself somewhere?
Yes — tea.school runs a four-week gongfu course, and tea.events lists in-person ceremonies in Berlin, Lisbon, and Saint Petersburg.
