Chinese Gong-Fu tea cup

To make the most of any fine loose tea, quality tea cups and tea pots should be used by any serious connoisseur. This is especially so for Chinese tea. The Chinese have a long history of crafting tea pots, tea cups, tea strainers and tea filters in support of the enjoyment and ceremony of Chinese tea.

We offer a range of tea cup and tea strainer that can be individually selected and combined with teapots or other tea accessories to form tea sets, or simply used on their own.

Gongfu tea cups - some background

The word gongfu (Kung fu) is an English translation for a Chinese word associated with the ceremony and preparation of fine teas and particularly relates to the skill or craftsmanship involved. It is now in popular use for any Chinese tea cup or tea pot of Chinese origin.

Valley Green Tea - which originated from Fujian province in China where the term is used - uses the term and other Chinese terms consistent with Chinese usage in this and other tea regions when describing our products. Most are gongfu i.e. gongfu tea cups and gongfu strainers, whilst all of our tea cups and tea strainers are of Chinese origin (even if adapted for western  tea practise - in which case we don't call them gong fu).

Tea cups

Our range includes:

  • glass Gongfu tea cups
  • double layer glass Gongfu tea cup
  • ceramic Gongfu tea cups
  • Yixing Zisha Gongfu tea cups

Tea filter and tea strainers

Our range includes:

  • stainless steel tea strainer and stainless steel tea filter
  • ceramic tea strainer and ceramic tea filter
  • Yixing Zisha tea strainer and Yixing Zisha tea filter with holder
