New Hagiyaki by Mukuhara Kashun, named Tsuchi-no-hana or flower of the earth. This rugged earthy style is very much to my liking great feel in the hand. It has been tough trying to get this piece captured in photo it has a lot going on and the glaze has a lot of subtly.

Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
I suddenly feel a need to hold my Mojave Eiichi hagi....a lot of similarity in the style of these cups. Love the combination of delicate greens and orange and yellow in the glaze of yours, and the graceful opening of the top of the cup.

Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
Got this for my girlfriend, she always complains " I want a bigger cup" I have no idea why because she still only drinks about four ounces of tea at a time. Anyway this cup makes her happy so thats cool.

Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
Beautiful vase, David!
I've been keeping my eye our for a small Hagi vase for over a year now. Nothing popped up on the "usual sources".
Did you buy this one in Japan or online?

Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
Thank you Stentor ! I bought it directly in Hagi a few years ago, even if it may not be the best place to find nice things. The town is full of shops with very commercial items, not very good quality.
It is 22 cm high. I first bought it to make a lamp out of it, but the result was disappointing, so I switched back to its original purpose : the hanaire.
I guess you could contact Mago if you have an idea of what you want. I am sure he will manage to find you something nice.

you have mentioned this before and as i previously replied i won't repeat myself, except to point out there are many excellent shops and studios to purchase the top hagi potters' works to less well known potters. if time allows it is worth going out of the city center to visit some kilns and studios. i think it would be a mistake not to explore hagi city (avoiding the commercial shops) to buy high quality, beautiful hagiyaki.
Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
Any special good adress to give to us ? Robert Yellin "gived" some on his e-yakimono site, but perhaphs someone who visited Hagi-City have more tips to share ?
Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
And of course, if someone have the exact adress of Kaneta Masanao's Kiln, i'll take it !
same for Seigan's kiln
and for Deishi shibuya and Eiichi too, because i'm mad about their works !
Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
I guess my timing was bad because during the couple of days I was there a lot of things were closed (galleries I found in travelling guides and so on). I was a bit disappointed considering how relatively easy it is to find good Hagi ware on the net, but I had a very good time nonetheless enjoying Hagi's life. The fact that I don't speak Japanese doesn't help I guess. But of course, I imagine that there are indeed a lot of things to see there... Next time, I'll dig deeper ! Even if my next priority would be to go to Iga and Shigaraki...rdl wrote:David R.,David R. wrote:Thank you Stentor !

People have told me some of these Deishi Chawans are BIG. Lets hope this helps people relate.

The middle sized piece is similar to the SO pieces Deishi did though mine might be a hair smaller. The smallest one is a Guinomi that holds about 70ml of liquid.

Another small piece by Noutomi Susumu. I really like the glaze and feel of this one
