Considering you have 6+ drips, chances are they attach to the stack while fired..

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?

I was looking the new batch few hours ago; as always, amazing teapots! :shock:

This one in particular is stunning in my opinion!

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 ... :mrgreen:

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

but something about putting a bird on it...
