Merélite Jianzhan: A teacup that connects people
In today’s fast-paced world, real connections are precious – and they often start with simple things. At Merélite, we believe in the power of handmade beauty to bring people closer together. That’s why we celebrate the Jianzhan teacup: an ancient ceramic, reinterpreted for modern life and given social significance.
A cup made of fire and hands.
Each Merélite Jianzhan is meticulously handcrafted over 72 hours before being naturally fired in a blazing kiln. The end result? Stunning glazes that can’t be replicated by machines – each cup is unique.
This uniqueness is not only aesthetic, but also symbolic. Each Jianzhan piece embodies a moment, a builder, a story – an invitation to explore, engage, and connect.
“Where is this mug from?”
“Why is it so shiny?”
“Can I try it?”
These questions not only spark conversations, they create shared experiences.
Objects that connect people
From the ancient tea ceremony to today’s relaxing coffee rituals, vessels have always played an important role in connecting people. Jian Zhan takes this role to a new level. Whether you’re serving matcha, espresso, or something stronger, Jian Zhan is a vehicle for conversation, a thoughtful expression, and a bridge between cultures.
Unlike mass-produced mugs, Jian Zhan’s design is not cookie-cutter or forgettable. It attracts attention, invites people to stop, and makes them stop.
Crafted with craftsmanship, creating meaningful moments
Dating back to the Song Dynasty, Jian Zhan was cherished by literati and monks for the meditative depth it embodied. At Mylite, we bring this heritage into the modern era, blending traditional craftsmanship with sophisticated international aesthetics.
Our cups are not only for tea, they are also perfect for coffee lovers, cocktail explorers and those who simply value items with soul.
Each Merélite cup comes with a beautiful gift box, ready to be part of someone's story.
