Hagi SO 14 "SnowDrifts" is set to go live on Thursday 12/23/10 at 6 pm Eastern. I have to say, these are dramatic and beautiful ... let me know what you think. SO 14 will feature a new Hagi artisan to the SO program.
The new topic will be opened before 6, possibly a few hours ahead of time due to family obligations on my part. I will attempt to post updates in the Coming soon topic ... http://www.teachat.com/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=14720
PMs will still have to be sent to me at or after 6 pm on Thursday!!!
The Official topic will be posted here: http://www.teachat.com/viewforum.php?f=66

Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
My first piece from AN, which I got from my parents for Christmas... its wonderful and I would say rather similar to the Hagi SO hohin in terms of size.

Interesting Seigan. Never saw one like that, yet it is so somple, it is a wonder I have not. Thanks TO.
Re: The unofficial/official HAGI topic!
My Deishi guinomi is staining ever so slowly but the inside looks rather cool now. Although the outside really shows no sign staining yet.

this is a known type but I can't recall what Seigan or one of his marketers calls it.
