Wanted to show off my stuff :)

All of my images are too big for the site so you'll have to use the direct link and scroll through he pictures. I have about 11 pictures

These are professional pictures taken by the sellers I'm using these because my camera is absolute rubbish.

And this is the set of a red and a black bowl by Shoraku, especially the aka-raku bowl surprised me with its excellent form and an orange hue that I haven't seen before 8)

picked up this bad boy in Yingge, Taiwan

made in Taiwan.

not a unique design, but i think it's hand made, and it's one of the finer examples of this style that i saw and loved.

I like the shape. The texture of the surface makes me feel uncomfortable, is there a certain name for that technique in Taiwan?

Very interesting texture!

I wonder if the color has anything to do with it? If the pot were brown, the texture would have more of a bark appearance. If it were white, maybe more like cauliflower ( :D ). But in this color, the texture is... striking? Unnatural? Well, either way, definitely interesting. :D
