Technical details
Handmade Jujube Wood Tea Cup Specs
This hand-turned wooden tea cup is crafted from jujube wood, a dense hardwood that naturally insulates your tea without needing a handle. Each cup is turned from a single piece of wood, so grain patterns vary beautifully from cup to cup. Perfect for loose leaf tea or any hot beverage, it's designed for hand washing only. The natural wood insulation keeps your drink at a comfortable temperature while protecting your lips from heat. Pair it with our best tea infusers for loose leaf brewing to get the most from your leaves.
The Comfort
No burnt lips, ever
Wood does what ceramic and glass can't: it stays warm to the touch without burning your hands or mouth. Between you and me, once you hold a jujube wood tea cup, you'll wonder why you ever used anything else. That natural insulation is pure magic on a chilly morning or quiet evening.
What You're Getting
Hand-turned jujube wood craftsmanship
Each cup is turned by hand from one solid billet of jujube wood, a dense hardwood prized for its warmth and durability. No two cups match because each one keeps its own grain pattern and character. It's honest work, the kind that shows in your hands every time you pick it up.
Picture This
Your morning ritual, perfected
You pour your loose leaf tea, wrap both hands around the warm wood, and breathe in the steam. No handle to fuss with, no ceramic rim that scalds your lip. Just you, your tea, and a cup that feels like it was made just for this moment. That's the whole point, honey.
Real Life
Why it works every single day
The wood insulates so well you can hold it comfortably from the moment it's filled. No waiting, no burnt fingers, no awkward handle gripping. It's practical, beautiful, and honest. Let me tell you, once you experience that natural warmth, you'll understand why people come back to wood again and again.

FAQ
Questions About Your Wood Tea Cup
Will the wood absorb tea stains or flavors?
Jujube wood is dense and naturally resistant. Hand wash after each use and it'll stay beautiful. Over time, it may develop a patina, but that's part of its charm and character, not a flaw.
Can I use it for hot water or only tea?
Use it for any hot beverage you love: tea, coffee, herbal infusions, hot water. The natural insulation works the same way. Just hand wash it after each use to keep it in top shape.
How do I care for a wooden tea cup?
Hand wash only, never put it in the dishwasher. Dry it promptly after washing. Occasionally, you can rub it with a tiny bit of food-safe mineral oil to keep the wood nourished, but plain hand washing is enough.
Will each cup look different?
Yes, absolutely. Each cup is hand-turned from one billet of wood, so every grain pattern is unique. That's not a variation, that's the whole point. No two cups match, and that's what makes yours truly yours.
What makes jujube wood special for tea cups?
Jujube wood is dense, durable, and naturally insulates heat beautifully. It stays warm to the touch without burning your hands or lips, and it won't crack or warp like softer woods. It's the right wood for the job.

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.
