MILK TEA MOMENT · NL-054

A cup of silk-stocking milk tea, a slow three o'clock

Milk tea brown, cream white and tea-house green, hand-painted with a glass of milk tea, a green-check tea-house cup, milk tea swirl marbling, little green flowers and a gold heart, finished with gold stars, gold beads and pearls — like sitting in a cha chaan teng booth, waiting for a strong, silky cup of milk tea. Japanese jelly-style finish, every nail hand-painted.

The story of this design

The story behind

The tea master pours boiling black tea through a cloth “silk stocking” again and again, until the tea and evaporated milk melt into one soft milk-tea colour.

She always orders a hot milk tea at three o'clock, sitting in a booth as sunlight slants across the white porcelain cup. She painted that afternoon into ten nails and tucked it into the “Nabi Cha Kee” diary.
