*WANT*

Seriously, I could take or leave most of the pieces. They're all just cups, really...and I've got cabinets of those. But this piece...this I want.

Nice job, Scruff.


[Edit: Just told Brandon about the steal. His response? "Bastard." The legions of TeaChat are very, very jealous.]

Yep, it's that classic Seigan blue. I've bid on half a dozen of his pieces, and finally got one!

Mary, what steal? I didn't snipe it or anything.

[Edit: Nevermind, I just got the whole steal thing. *headdesk* Brandon can't complain though, psh, he's practically the Japanese teaware king]

I would be happy to take them off your hands, if you like.

I think all the handles on these little yixing pots are small if you expect to grasp them like a big pot. There's no way my little 45 and 70 ml pots could have handles that were big enough by normal standards.

I have finally learnt how to make a public photoalbum and I'm posting images of my teaware in all topics! Beware. Unfortunately I don't own a decent camera, just my lousy cell phone with 0.5 Mb VGA camera. I received two packets from Japan today so I just have to share some pictures with you. Here is some of my older and brand new teaware.

I don't know if there are limitations about how many pictures one can include in a mail so I'll split the pictures in several mails.
