Japanese Garden Showcase

by Moss » May 17th, '09, 09:26

I am new to this forum and wondered when and where this event is?

You would need to contact your local Japanese Gardens and ask them if they hold any ceramics showcases. Many of the larger ones do - for tea ceremony, for ikebana, for paper crafts. The dates will vary.

saw an amazing show yesterday at nihonbashi Mitsukoshi 6th floor. work of bizen potter Harada Shuroku .. hehe. i took off my watch and actually was able to handle about 8-10 matcha chawan. harada sensei`s chawan are very well balanced. the kuchizukuri was very smooth. looked like some cooling reduction/wood fired pieces. amazing !

above is the koudai view of my soda chawan

aloha

Wowwwww!
I'm drooling.
Many of your creations touch me deeply.
Is there a link or some other info you could provide that would inform
me about which of your works are available and how to purchase?
Again, wow.
