The texture of pottery is relatively rough and slightly absorbent. If the glaze falls off, that part will be easily contaminated and cannot be washed away. The texture of porcelain is finer and non-absorbent, and of course the price will be much higher. ; Bone china cups have good thermal insulation and can keep coffee hot in the cup, but they are extremely expensive; double-layered stainless steel cups have extremely high thermal insulation, are durable and will not be worn, and are slightly more expensive than bone china coffee, but they lack the appearance. sex;
The simplicity of the ceramic cup and the roundness of the porcelain cup respectively symbolize different attitudes towards coffee.
