What is a Gaiwan?

Gaiwan in Chinese means "covered bowl." It is actually a bowl, a lid and a saucer, and has been used in China since the Ming dynasty. There are some alternative names resulting from different spelling and translation; "guywan" and "lidded bowl", for example.

The gaiwan is best for brewing delicate teas; it can be used for steeping, serving and drinking.
