I agree! That is very sharp!

Very "shibui" as they say in Japan (which means beautiful and elegant in an understated and sophisticated manner or something like that anyway!).

My new teaset from Petr Novak arrived today...brewing 2010 Mansai puerh left from the OTTI

Oh my. That teapot is incredible. I love it.

+1+1+1+1, etc.

Finally the long awaited Petr Pot!

Mmmmmmmnn! Lots of character

Really beautiful, congratulations!

I found several nice tea ware items in a thrift shop near me. I'm especially curious about the large bowl. From reading around here and other places I think it's a chawan, but not sure. It's about 4" diameter at the top and very thick at the bottom.

Size?

thank you everyone

to answer TokyoB it´s 125ml

Entropy, the pot is beautiful! and the size is also great for gong fu! Petr definitely has his own style. And what about functionality? Is lid fit good? How does the tea taste?

BarbJ - Nice find! It's lovely no matter, enjoy!

Lid fit is snug and the pour is fast and smooth...the tea tastes great...I dont think the pot alters the taste much it has a white glaze on the inside so the pot should be fairly neutral. It´s my first gongfu size pot and I really enjoyed taking the puerh through so many infusions yesterday...I completely lost count by the evening

BarbJ, thank you for sharing your lovely 'find' with us. It is always fun to be surprised with kewel stuff while thrift shopping! Great pickup!

Wow Ent, definitely worth the wait, a true and one of a kind PetrPot! . I am glad you are thoroughly enjoying it!

Etropye...
That's a beautiful set, truly a work of art! I hope to own something that lovely someday. I'd be drinking tea all day too!

Victoria and Mrs.Chip, thanks, I had fun hunting!
