Set a hot gongfu cup down and the wood underneath stays clear. This solid walnut paw-print coaster insulates the table and lets water drain through the cutouts. It suits a tea set, a sideboard or a desk.
Solid wood paw-print tea coaster that insulates the table from hot cups and tea sets
- hot cups damaging tabletops
- moisture and water rings on wood surfaces
- wet or heavy tea cups slipping on tea trays
Set every hot cup down on wood, without the rings
Your tea ritual should not mark the table you love. A solid walnut paw-print coaster gives each cup a stable, heat-insulating base.
Solid walnut, cut open to breathe

Solid walnut that insulates
Solid wood sits between the hot cup and your table, so the heat stops at the coaster instead of reaching the surface. Set down a fresh pour and the wood underneath stays cool to the touch. Thick, dense walnut does this far better than a thin felt pad.

Cutouts that drain
The paw-print openings let water run through instead of pooling under the cup. You can see the table beneath, which makes it easy to check for drips after a session. Pair it with tea tray gongfu sets for a finished table.
A little care keeps the finish warm
- Wipe after use
Dry the surface with a soft cloth after each session so tea and water never sit on the grain. Keep beverage coasters within reach for a quick wipe-down.
- Keep it dry
Let the coaster air out between uses and store it flat away from standing water.
- Skip the soak
Never soak it, run it through the dishwasher, or wash it in hot soapy water. Heat and long wet spells dry out the oil.

Questions and answers
It is built for small gongfu cups and sits under them with the base fully supported. Check that your cup has a flat foot, since a rounded base will rock on any coaster.
Solid wood handles splashes well when you dry it after each session. Do not leave it soaking in a puddle of tea, because long wet periods can swell or darken the wood.
Yes. The walnut sits between the cup and the surface, so the heat and moisture stay on the coaster. A thin felt pad soaks through and stains over time, while this stays put and wipes clean.
Black walnut is the deeper, darker tone and suits a dark tea table or a desk with darker wood. Cherry is warmer and orange-toned, and it brightens a sideboard or a lighter desk.
A felt pad needs replacing once it stains, and plastic traps moisture under the cup. Solid walnut is a single piece that lasts for years and only needs a wipe with a dry cloth.
