名词 n.
  1. A Chinese lidded cup or bowl, used to steep tea, sometimes including a saucer, developed during the Ming dynasty as an improvement upon the (lidless) chawan.
    — Perhaps the greatest vessel for brewing tea is one of the most simple in construction and design: the gaiwan. In use since at least the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), the gaiwan is ubiquitous in Chinese tea culture and consists of only a saucer, a bowl, and a lid.
