{"product_id":"da-dou-li-sky-eye-oil-spot-jianzhan-tea-bowl","title":"\"Da Dou Li\" Sky Eye Oil Spot Jianzhan Tea Bowl","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Da Dou Li\" (大斗笠), literally \"large bamboo hat,\" takes its name from the wide-brimmed bamboo hat worn in the fields across southern China. The bowl takes that profile in a single, clean movement: a steep, conical wall flaring out from a small foot to a wide, open rim. There is no neck, no belly — just one continuous line, like the slope of a hat when it sits on the table. The proportions are generous; the rim sits comfortably wide in the hand, and the small foot keeps the whole form light on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze is a Tian Yan (天眼, \"Sky Eye\") oil spot, set on a deep black ground. The silver crystals here are small, rounded, and tightly packed — beaded rather than streaked, like a field of fine dewdrops caught on the surface. On the exterior they sit raised, catching the light as small silver beads. Inside, they cluster densely across the steep wall, with a clear blue iridescence toward the center and a paler silver band running along the rim. The wide opening lets the pattern read at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted in Jianyang, Nanping, Fujian — historically known as Jianzhou or Jian'an — and fired at 1300°C. The bowl is dense in hand and holds heat well; its iron-rich glaze is often said to soften the taste of the tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140 ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e190 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.6 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandmade — slight variations in size and weight are normal.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeld in hand for size reference — see photo above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotos are taken of one piece selected at random from each batch.
