I bought 3 sky blue/lava color/yellow emperor
I'm going to put all three in the same review. This should give you an idea of what you might or might not get.Sky Blue - This one has a horrible glaze job on it. There are particles caught in the glaze inside the cup making the inside rough. The rim is not completely glazed so it is a bit rough on the lips. The picture on the website is representative of what I got. It is very pretty, but I think the glaze job has made it something I will never use.Lava Color - This one has a great glaze job. Everything is nice and smooth. The teacup I received looks nothing like the picture on the website. If the picture on the website looked like what I got I probably would not have ordered it because it is not really what I was looking for.Yellow Emperor - Perfect. Great glaze job. Even though it is not really my color I ordered it because it looked so good on the website. In person it looks ever better. This was the best one of the bunch. I'm tempted to order another Yellow Emperor but there is no guarantee that it will look like the one I just got or that it will be properly glazed.As far as size goes they are perfect. They are made in China and appear to be made to Chinese standards. One expects a typical Chinese teacup to be between 40 ml and 90 ml. Of course they can be bigger and smaller but they would not be typical If you want something bigger buy American.

Inaccurate Listing Description
Although the cup is sturdy and well made, the color and design is quite different from the picture in the listing. In addition, the volume is significantly less than the 120 ml stated because of the thickness of the walls - filled to the brim at 100 ml.

Hefty weight but so tiny they aren’t of much use
These are nice looking tea cups, with a solid weight to them. The design is quite pleasing as well, if not a bit more matte finished then the sample photos. I, however, found them to be much smaller then the 120ml promised as another review mentioned. I was able to fit 100ml in one to the very brim of the cup and not a drop more. I can’t imagine anyone drinking it this full. Filled comfortably it was barely 80ml. Not enough liquid to make it of any use. I also found that they heat up a bit too much when hot liquid it put into them, making them hard to hold, and sucking the heat out of the tea or coffee itself.My package also smelled very strongly like perfume and a hint of cigarettes, I had to toss the box and soak them to make them tolerable. If you want decorations, these might be for you. If you want to use them for tea, I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

It arrived broken!
Well, one cup was broken out of the two cup set. Which was a bummer, but the seller sent a replacement cup, along with a really nice handwritten note of apology. It's a small family run business, and the personal touch of the nice note was really appreciated. The handcrafted cups are exactly what I wanted to complement with my iron teapot. Iron cups are too hot to drink from, but this little cup looks like it was custom made for my teapot, AND it doesn't burn my lips!! So, in short, I'm happy with my cups and the quick response of the seller, so I deleted the picture of the broken cup, as it's really not relevant now.

They feel solid and good in your hand like you are holding something quality
I bought two of these lovely tea cups. They feel solid and good in your hand like you are holding something quality, not a mass produced piece. They have a nice glaze and are fairly thick. These have become our go to cups to enjoy a small pot of good tea.

Great but Tiny
I got these little cups for my mom and she loved them! They are gorgeous, but they are very tiny. She uses them when cooking to crack eggs into, and they are big enough to hold one L or XL sized egg. So they are perfect for her needs, but I am not sure they would be big enough if she wanted to use them for drinking tea. They definitely are smaller than described. Gorgeous glazing though! (We ordered Grass Green and Luolv colors)

Great Product!
This little cup arrived on time and exceeded my expectations. It feels heavy and quality in your hand, and the finish is beautiful. I will be buying more!
