Tead Off, TEAWARE ONLINE

This will be my modest attempt at establishing an online teaware site which will hopefully grow to include several potters working in various styles and regions in the world. My goal is to establish relationships with potters working in the genre of teaware, particularly Asian style teaware, and consign or purchase collections of their work for resale. This will enable me to offer work of high quality and artistic merit at very reasonable prices.
I am not certain if I will confine my selections to those potters who live and work in Asia as there are many who live in other parts of the world who produce excellent wares. It just might be easier to manage this if I limit the work to Asian sources. I will leave the door open and see who walks in.
To kick off this new venture, I am proud to offer the work of:
HONG SEONG-IL
Seong-il lives and works in Boseong, South Korea. Boseong is located in Jeollanam-do province in the southwest of Korea, and, is a large producer of teas. You can see the lovely hills covered in verdant green tea bushes just about everywhere. In the midst of this, Seong-il produces teaware in his studio using stoneware, porcelain, and, onggi clays. He fires primarily in a gas kiln and on occasion, woodfires. He is what I would call a creative potter, stepping out of the traditional mold and creating lyrical yet practical implements for making and drinking tea. His is a rustic, yet, sophisticated style of teaware that makes a statement. I hope you enjoy his work as much as I do.
PURCHASING WORKS: From now until May 25, 2011, I have special pricing for Seong-il’s teapots, $99. + shipping. Please ask questions about any of the work.
SHIPPING: Seong-il’s work will be either drop-shipped from South Korea directly to the buyer or shipped from Bangkok, Thailand. We ship worldwide. Shipping costs will be actual and will be quoted depending on weight and type of service. All shipping costs will be paid by the buyer.
GUARANTEE: If buyer is not satisfied with a purchase, they will have 5 days to notify me and arrange for a return. Buyer will bear all shipping charges both to them and any return back to me. Item must be returned in original condition. We will make all efforts to pack well and ship promptly.
PAYMENT: Until further notice, all payments will be made through Paypal. Contact me directly for payment instructions. Please PM me on Teachat with any enquiries.
THANK YOU!!
