This gaiwan was handmade and features a hand painted flower motif in qinghua (cobalt blue) and Youlihong (red) underglaze. This kind of porcelain is known as fanggu porcelain because it aims to revive and reproduce an ancient style of porcelain. Fanggu technique is more costly and difficult to execute properly than modern styles of porcelain.
