Speaking of titanium water bottles, the market has been ruined in the past few years. The quality is uneven, the prices are high and low, and the designs are all the same. If you really want a unique product, only old brands like Fegve, which are made by craftsmen, are still holding on.
The unique blue tinted titanium metal color and the crystalline three-dimensional pattern of titanium snowflakes have become the most eye-catching presence on my sideboard. It is also a portable cup that I like to carry when I travel between Luliang and Taiyuan on weekends in the past two years. It has a traditional small teapot without a lid. When in use, rinse it with hot water and put it in your bag after use. It is not afraid of bumps, is super convenient, has a unique appearance, is pleasing to the eye and is practical. I bought the first-generation cold water cup at that time, and Mr. Wu from Fegve specially helped me carve out my online name "Brother Habit", which I plan to use for the rest of my life.
Recently, I saw that his family has launched a new series of thermos cups, which still have crystal snowflake patterns, hand-carved patterns, and anodized coloring, which is very unique. It just happened to form a pair with the plain color cold water cup I had before, and could be used by my wife (it was all an excuse, you know), so I decided to buy it!
First of all, let’s talk about the color and pattern. This is from the hands of the handicraft expert "Taike Nianjia". It is completely hand-carved and hand-anodized step by step. It is said that the crafting cost is more than 2,000 yuan per cup. This is very different from the laser mass-engraved pattern products on the market that cost 100 or 200 yuan.
As for the look and feel, firstly, it is hand-carved, and each cup is the same. Just like a hand-painted painting, the same pattern cannot be completely repeated, maintaining the uniqueness of the product details. Second, the pattern is more three-dimensional, both in color and texture, and is more eye-catching. The carving I made is of grasslands, distant mountains, prayer flags, eagles, cattle and sheep. The 360-degree continuous pattern is very eye-catching.
For example, the local details of carved grasslands and cattle and sheep will reflect different layers at different angles under the sun.
In terms of product safety, the currently recognized food safety grade metal utensils are made of 304 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel, and titanium alloy from low to high. In addition, titanium alloy has the best anti-corrosion, acid and alkali resistance, so whether it is a cup for drinking beer, carbonated drinks, spirits, red wine, tea, coffee, etc., even if it is not cleaned in time, there is no need to worry about rust.
And whether it is anodizing or titanium blue process, it is actually a dense oxide layer on the surface of titanium alloy. There is no hidden danger of excessive heavy metals in the glaze like painted and gilded porcelain.
However, in order to reduce the concerns of users who do not understand the baking color and anodizing characteristics of titanium alloy and worry about safety issues when they see the color inside the cup, this time the fegve titanium alloy insulated water cup is deliberately anodized, and the inner wall is treated with the natural color without coloring. In fact, it is deliberate and belongs to series optimization. Instead, the process adds an additional step.
But in this way, when serving tea or wine, you can see the color of the soup more clearly. As for the ice pattern on the outside, some are also called snow patterns. In fact, they are crystals formed at 850 to 1200 degrees Celsius, which is close to the disguised temperature. This kind of crystallization not only makes the surface no longer completely smooth, but also feels better, and the texture is more three-dimensional and beautiful. It also improves the scratch resistance of the surface.
As for the thickness, the inner wall of this thermos cup is 0.5mm thick, and the outer wall is 1.3mm thick. It has a 2mm hollow structure in the middle. In this way, when drinking hot drinks, even 95-degree tea soup, the handle cannot feel the temperature at all, and the outer wall is only slightly warm. The thermal insulation effect is indeed very good.
As for the capacity, it is actually similar to Fegve’s cold water cup, both have a capacity of about 350mL, and it is very convenient to carry around.
Finally, here is a real shot of the hand-carved cup body painted in four angles:
