Ceramic Gaiwan Tea Cup 170ml, White Porcelain, 'Kong' 空 Character

空 (Kōng) — emptiness — brushed in one sweeping cursive gesture across the bowl, with a little pink-robed monk seated in meditation right on top of the character's long horizontal stroke. Soft pink lotus buds trail off to the side and onto the lid.

170ml of glossy white porcelain in the full three-piece set, with a wide, easy-to-hold lid knob. The cursive 空 is the boldest brushwork of the four — it reads from across the room.
