Happy tea drinking to you all.
These tea wares look very beautiful. Very unique, I’ve never seen anything quite like them! I hope that your company and Ian will benefit greatly from this offering.
Thanks for your feedback Chadao. We hope that it is just the start, would be lovely to see the series grow and adapt. Tea wares are such an important part of the whole enjoyment of tea. Ian’s work with glazes over the decades has been tremendous, and again we hope that he can bring of some this knowledge and experience to tea wares, not just sculptural pieces.
Found an interesting article on tea wares on the rather excellent Tea Leaf magazine website: http://the-leaf.org/issue8/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/teawaretrends1.pdf
Captures the essence the interaction of humans with tea and nature. Plus the individuality of creating a tea space.
SO pretty, but I can’t afford it right now on a student’s budget :(
If he were to come out with a gaiwan to go along with the cups, though, maybe I could justify it :)
Michelle, thanks for your comments and feedback. Will pass this on to Ian and see what we can do in the future.
