The Real Benefit
A Chinese Tea Set That Fits Your Morning
Hold on now, 200ml is just right. Not too much, not too little. You pour, you sip, you breathe. No rushing, no cold half-cup waiting at the end. This little blue enameled gaiwan set turns your ordinary morning into something that actually feels intentional. Between you and me, that small shift matters more than people think. It's not just tea, sweetheart, it's your five quiet minutes.
Why It's Made Well
Blue Enamel, Classic Chinese Gaiwan Design
The enamel finish is what makes this set practical without losing its charm. That deep blue catches the light beautifully, and the surface stays smooth and easy to clean, mind you. The 200ml size is true to traditional Chinese tea service portions: small, deliberate, and made for tasting properly. The gaiwan pairs naturally with the teapot, so the whole set works together as one honest little unit.
Picture This
Sunday Morning, Oolong, This Blue Set
You've got your loose-leaf oolong ready. You fill the teapot, let it steep just so, then pour into the gaiwan, slow and steady. The blue enamel glows warm in the morning light. You cradle the gaiwan in both hands the way it was meant to be held. Well now, that's not just a cup of tea, that's a small ceremony you gave yourself. Believe me, you'll want this every morning.
Everyday Proof
Small Pot, Big Daily Difference
The 200ml capacity means you're not brewing for an army when you just want one good cup. The enamel wipes clean with no fuss, no staining drama. The gaiwan sits steady, pours cleanly. I'm just not convinced by those fussy oversized sets for a solo tea drinker, and this blue Chinese set proves the point nicely. Compact, pretty, and genuinely useful every single day.
What You Actually Get

Inside the box you get the blue enameled teapot and the matching gaiwan, the full Chinese set as described. No guessing, no missing pieces. The 200ml teapot and the gaiwan arrive together, ready to use. That's it, simple and honest. If you want to dress up the whole setup, the Japanese wooden tea tray makes a lovely companion for this kind of set, dear.
FAQ
Questions About This Blue Enameled Teapot Set
How much tea does this set actually make?
The teapot holds 200ml. That's roughly one generous cup or two small Chinese-style pours. It's designed for a focused solo session or sharing a careful tasting with one other person. Perfect if you like brewing in small, intentional batches.
Does the gaiwan come included, or is it sold separately?
The gaiwan comes with the teapot as a complete set. You get both pieces together, so there's no need to hunt for a matching gaiwan separately. It's all there in the box, ready to use from day one.
Can I use this teapot on a stovetop or induction hob?
The description doesn't confirm stovetop or induction compatibility for this enamel set. Check the product listing carefully before placing it on any direct heat source. When in doubt, heat your water separately in a kettle and pour it into the teapot for steeping.
How do I clean the enamel without damaging it?
Hand-washing is recommended for this blue enameled set. Gentle soap and warm water will keep the enamel looking its best. Avoid abrasive scrubbers, which can scratch the surface over time. The enamel finish is part of what makes this set beautiful, so treat it with a little care.
Is this set good for beginners to Chinese tea brewing?
Absolutely, honey. The gaiwan is the classic tool for Chinese tea brewing, and this 200ml set is a great size to start with. It's not overwhelming, not too fussy. You learn the gestures, the pour, the timing, without committing to a large complicated setup right away.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
