At 5 oz (150 cc) each, the cups hold a standard Turkish tea serving; the handles make them accessible to guests of all ages and backgrounds without requiring the rim-hold technique of the traditional çay bardağı. Twelve pieces means no one at the table is without a cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jayda design carries the decorative character of the collection across all twelve pieces consistently. For households that host regularly and want a full handled tea service without the limitations of a 6-piece set, the 12-piece Jayda is the practical answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the matching mirra cups in the Jayda collection, see \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/turkish-coffee-tea\"\u003eJayda mirra coffee cups\u003c\/a\u003e.

Tea served in the wrong glass changes how it is experienced — the narrow-waist tulip glass that concentrates the aroma, the small coffee cup that keeps the concentrate from cooling, the metal saucer that carries heat properly. We selected these because they are the objects that have been on Turkish and Middle Eastern tea tables for generations — not because they are trendy, but because they work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Cleaning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-wash with warm water and mild soap.

Polish occasionally with a soft cloth to maintain finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePorcelain and ceramic cups: dishwasher safe on the top rack, but hand-washing extends the life of gold or silver decorative details.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the correct size for a Turkish tea glass?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTraditional Turkish tea glasses hold 3.5–5 oz (100–150 ml). The narrow waist is not decorative — it keeps your fingers away from the hot liquid while holding the rim. Turkish tea is never poured to the brim; leave space at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between a Turkish coffee cup and an espresso cup?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTurkish coffee cups (2–3 oz \/ 60–90 ml) are similar in size to espresso cups but are typically rounder and shorter. The small size is intentional — Turkish coffee is concentrated and served in small amounts, with the grounds settling at the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use these glasses in the microwave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. Glass tea glasses with metal rims or holders should not go in the microwave. Plain glass without metal accents can be microwaved briefly, but these sets are designed for stovetop-brewed tea, not reheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many glasses do I need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTurkish hospitality means serving all guests simultaneously — a set of 6 is the traditional hosting size. Sets of 2 are for personal use. If you regularly host, a 6-piece set is the right starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the traditional way to serve Turkish tea?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn a tray, with a sugar bowl alongside (sugar is never stirred in — it is held between the teeth or placed on the saucer). The glass is filled two-thirds with concentrate, one-third with hot water from the kettle. Guests adjust to their own preference.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rootsware","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51916696027434,"sku":"35056","price":59.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/6360\/1194\/files\/35056.jpg?v=1782267502","url":"https:\/\/rootsware.com\/products\/turkish-teacups-with-handles-12-piece-jayda","provider":"Rootsware","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
