Square in form, curved at every edge

The Imperial Memories Square Set is the most geometric of the three — a cup body that approaches a perfect square, with every corner resolved into a precise arc. This "square with curved edges" was the most technically demanding detail in the series: a pure right angle would be too cold, a pure circle too soft. The arc at each corner is where Heinrich Wang found the character of the piece. Paired with a square saucer whose cup seat returns the cup to its exact position after each sip, this set is an exercise in considered restraint.
Designed by contemporary white porcelain artist Heinrich Wang, each piece brings Eastern philosophy into contemporary form.
Reflections on life, given form as objects — a modern aesthetic with a Zen sensibility.
A clear glaze reveals the purest white of the fired porcelain body.
Only hands can pass on the warmth of the hand. Every NewChi piece is handmade, taking on the most demanding challenges of porcelain craft.

The morning that requires clarity
A square cup in hand before anything else. The geometry asks for a certain presence — not relaxation, but composure. The cup goes back to its seat when the sip is finished.
A formal tea or coffee setting
The square set brings a composed, architectural quality to a tea table. Paired with the Imperial Memories teapot, the visual language of the table becomes precise and unified.
The desk and the workspace
The square cup and saucer on a work desk is a statement about how the day is approached. When not in use, the set at rest on the desk has the presence of a considered object, not a utilitarian one.
