Hope this is close enough for details.... But still not sure if all or any is Hagi.
I am very confuse.... is hagi ware (萩焼) a subcategory of 瀬戸 or the other way around?
Cheers - T

Nice cups, but I have no clue. Some certainly have a Hagi look to them.
Can you share what the characters mean? Thanks.

That's a pretty spiffy new avatar you've got there, Chip.
You should definitely stop by--they have some absolutely a-maz-ing Hagi and Iga ware.

Very nice Seigan blue pick up. Enjoy!

Wow! I am glad you visited my little secret place in the city. Your pick is most excellent: Hornest, humble and natural, all the important signatures of a Classic Hagi. Congrats-t

Hagi teaware sounded so great and looks so beautiful from all your pictures I just had to see for myself whats so great about hagi. Everything! I just received this Oni Hagi Yunomi cup from artisticnippon a few days ago. The artist is Shibuya Deishi. I just love the character.
The third picture is when I soaked it before use and saw all the little air bubble I just needed a pic.

Ohhhhhhhhhh congrats Brad!! My first Hagi piece was very similar to yours.
I loved watching the changes. Congrats, that's a really nice one!
