Ginkgo - Tea ware - Switzerland

[ginkgo]

Thanks to everyone here .
Lucie Rie and Hans Cooper were friends and encoraging each others with their own works. The beauty of their shapes , so clear and precise and indeed keeping movement is just .... I have no words because it is so great.
Hamada and Leach have developped a great lign of thinking about the traditional ceramic , like a little revolution and has pull ceramic out the making-pot to a art standing . I like the freshness of the movement of their pieces and the brush appilication of glaze or underglaze. Such persons are important because we just can keep these works and share them in our heart and ....go on with our own way with that humility...

ginkgo, WOW! Those glazes are just awesome and I love the different shapes.
I see one of your lovely creations adorning one of our shelves in the near future. Beautiful teawarz!!!

Trees: Holy moly! What a beautiful glaze and a very nice form.

Some more shino, oribe and mix-glazes. I work with a few glazes one over the others for 3 or 4 levels . Sometimes I put a clay before first fire at 980 ° and then 2 or 4 glazes for second fire at 1280°.Soemtimes it is quite good result but... sometimes and glaze are not compatibles and they react : thes split undr , making big "hole" on the bowl and coming down on the kiln ,....



One bowl and its inside with a red touch due to ohata glaze under shino.

Incredible! BTW, how is Mrs. Chip going to get some of your wares in her rotation? I don't see a store link. Inquiring minds want to know.

It is a great question!

I saw these beautiful works, went ahead and posted how much I liked them and figured our 'Mod' would get the hint and do the leg work for me since ummm,... hint,hint, ... Christmas is coming!

I have a PM in to her which she has not picked up for several days. I have been to her site before which is accessible through her blog with is linked on her profile. I think you then just email her with inquires as to the bowl you are interested in. (I don't see the current pieces listed though)

Holy smoke... these are some of the most beautiful glazes I have ever seen. Just what I needed... another expensive thing to crave! But truly, I really love your work. Absolutely fantastic. One of those big yunomi with the turquoise green should really live in my home... oh geeze, I need smelling salts, I am feeling faint.
