A new Cory Lum Shino Chawan makes its TeaChat debut. Just arrived today, a gift from Mrs. Chip. A very extreme example and full of character and texture. It reminds me of a 3D map or ...

This was reportedly last seen at an orc feast in Mordor when a fight broke out, Orc green blood stained. This is one very sturdy piece and could easily kill a bunch of orcs in a pinch. Very masculine in feel and appearance.

In all that, it is also very stunning.

WOW!!! Now that's the shino I'm talkin' about! I love that orange, with orange peel texture. Holy schmolies. I've been looking... someday I'll find one. :)

Good job Mrs. Chip. Lucky Mr. Chip.
