Tibetan Wooden Butter Tea Cup with White Copper Rim
A compact Tibetan-style wooden tea cup designed for butter tea, milk tea, hot water, or display styling. The cup combines warm variegated wood grain with a bright white-copper rim and base detail, giving it the look of a small everyday object from a Himalayan tea table.
Two Styles
Cup Only: one wooden tea cup with white-copper rim and base detail.
Cup with Lid: one wooden tea cup with a matching decorative lid.
Craft & Materials
The cup is semi-handmade with a polished wood body and white-copper metal trim. The wood grain, color depth, rim tone, and small finishing marks may vary slightly from piece to piece, which is normal for this style of small-batch tableware.
