Hulu, the Chinese word for gourd, has auspicious associations. Its pronunciation is very similar to fulu (福祿), which means happiness, or good fortune and high official rank.

This wood fired teacup has a stunning pattern which is the result of the fire and melted wood ash reacting in the wood-firing process. There is no artificial glaze on the teacup; when firing some of the wood ash in the kiln falls on the teawares, which under constant high temperature results in a different colour, pattern and texture for each individual piece of teaware.

I hope it not only brings a simple aesthetic to your tea table, but also the best luck that it symbolizes.
