Ancient traditional Vietnamese Tea Cup found on abandoned boat. Part of our Hanoi Capsule, this vintage ceramic cup carries the charm and imperfection of something beautifully aged. Handcrafted in Vietnam and adorned with a single deep indigo floral motif, its presence is as poetic as it is purposeful.

Each piece tells a story — of craft, culture, and continuity — making it not only a vessel but an intimate object of ritual. Its gently tapered shape and natural ivory glaze invite the warmth of tea, conversation, and slow moments.

Sourced in limited quantities, no two are alike.
