Today's MatchaWan :D (new name, but tea's the same)

Ya Seeker, I could see some fine peaty whisky, like Laphroaig Quarter Cask matching up really well with that bowl.

Used some pretty stale matcha this morn. Still decent though!





Happy sippin!

Hi Tead, Hi Chip!
TY!
Great bowl T!
We'd all love to see some match a'cradle inside if you're willing?

Seeker, never touch the stuff!

[Seeker]

Wow, great bowl!!!
I LOVE Rob's tengu!!!!
I'm such a chawan whore
Now I want one, bad.

[Smells_Familiar]

You've got one silly! Doesn't mean you can't want another...

Yours is sweet, I almost snagged it off etsy, waited too long and you grabbed it. There was also one other of Rob's on etsy that I will never forgive myself for stalling on. Maybe the most amazing chawan I've ever seen. I had to wait a day for the funds to show up in my paypal associated acct. and poof, gone. I snagged the one in the photo on etsy. I'll post more photos on the show off thread soon.

Yessssss...
Another one, heh heh.
Precioussssss...

How's this for a chawan?

I found it from the flea-market for 0.5€, but didn't realize to use it for matcha until the handle accidentally broke. Some old-schol wabi-sabi, eh?

I have no intentions on drinking matcha from my previous chawan anymore.

Let's see..... a childrens cup with a broken handle, being used for matcha.

I'd call it whaaaaaaa - bing then sobbing.

Haha yeah It's disgustingly different.

A very good lesson for our newer peeps who feel they must have a "proper" chawan. Really any nice size/shape bowl will work nicely.

[Seeker]

I like it!

That is very in the spirit of tea. I love it!

Let us all tip our Chawans to Mr. and Mrs Seeker! Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Kyo Yaki with crane in relief. This is an amazing piece.

I'm back from my wedding, and packing for honeymoon!
Thanks for the tip of the chawans!!!

We had a great ceremony. (good, good love tears)

Great chawan Chip!

When I return from honeymooning I'll get back to sharing chawan!

I have one new wedding gift chawan to share, and my eye on a couple of others!

Cheers everyone!
