Traditional lamp

Jianzhan is made for tea. Tea-drinking culture flourished in Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty. Before the Tang dynasty, the bowls for drinking and eating were all the same, and there was no distinction, showing the heroic feeling of drinking. By the rise of tea-drinking culture in the Tang Dynasty, the work of drinking tea was different from drinking utensils, so the construction of lanterns appeared. Jianzhan is a kind of tea drinking vessel produced in Jianyang, which is generally made of black glaze.

The rise of tea fighting in Song Dynasty needed a kind of vessel which could not only be convenient for tea fighting, but also be different from drinking vessels. Therefore, in order to meet this demand, the emergence of the station is timely. Jianzhan is a kind of ceramic ware produced in Jianyang. On the one hand, literally, it is more elegant, more suitable for ancient poets and literati to express their feelings in tea, more in line with the atmosphere and proper choice of words.

On the one hand, the word "bowl" is too vulgar, on the other hand, it can't be distinguished from other utensils.

Jianzhan has gradually become popular in the past two years, and it is really a very good vessel. Many people who love tea also choose to build a lamp. Good quality lanterns must be black glazed, and there are many different styles and patterns.
