I actually find that shocking that it is still for sale in that condition.Alex wrote:Shame one of the drips has already been broken off

Re: Not my teaware.....but I wish it were....
Considering you have 6+ drips, chances are they attach to the stack while fired..
Re: Not my teaware.....but I wish it were....
That broken drippie would be a great candidate for a rounded kintsugi patch.

OK, I'll play ... Yamada Sou mayake (wood fired). Might be the best mayake kyusu I have seen by Yamada. What do you think?

Re: Not my teaware.....but I wish it were....
I was looking the new batch few hours ago; as always, amazing teapots!
This one in particular is stunning in my opinion!

Re: Not my teaware.....but I wish it were....
I like both of those just posted, but the one that made me go 'oooh!' was the 2nd pot, even though I think I'd like the first one better on my shelf; the first one was just very dramatic in shape.

Yeah, I have been eying Konishi Yohei for years, but at half the price, Yamada has been indulgent enough.
Yohei really appears to go wild while Yamada is still under the wings of his predecessor.
Still one day ...

Normally, I am not into the classic folk look/style of this Japanese teaware:

but something about putting a bird on it...
