Celadon, definitely, especially cups. I have no chataku, and would love some sakura ones. And I would probably break out the big guns and buy a tea tray that is wood with inlays (mother or pearl or abalone.) I'd also get a nice cabinet to show off my stuff - but I'll probably do that anyways eventually, just haven't found the right one yet. After 2+ years of looking, I'm not sure I will.
In my cup: oolong #40 and I'm taking a shot at incorporating flowers from the yard like the boys do.
Hi Tenuki, my wife just ordered a Jacuzzi 335, it does have illuminated cup holders . It will come in 4 weeks after we have the cement pad and the electric done....then the decking. We had an inheritance windfall. Wasn't that the question? " If you were rolling in the dough"??? Will send pics if Salsero comes to take them!! Or, I will try my best!!

I have a thing for chinese peacocks and fu dogs myself, but haven't seen any good ones on teaware yet. Love the dragons. Besides this cup and the gaiwan, I have two more dragon gaiwans, and a dragon tetsubin with matching cups. It's a little excessive...Chip wrote: Lovely...and dragons on teaware are a close second to Japanese Maples on teaware in my book.
Even the benevolent mythical dragon, Long Jing eats peacocks for snacks...Victoria wrote:You mean like this one?GeekgirlUnveiled wrote:I have a thing for chinese peacocks and fu dogs myself, but haven't seen any good ones on teaware yet.Chip wrote: Lovely...and dragons on teaware are a close second to Japanese Maples on teaware in my book.

So then, dragons eat peacocks, foo dogs bite dragons...and I guess peacocks peck the foo dogs...Victoria wrote:Sushhhhhh!
