In the last two images I am curious about the shigaraki-like highly textured bowls on the lower left and right (second from last image, image won’t load), and the vine handled teapot in the last image. This photo? https://www.teaforum.org/download/file.php?id=1366 Everything y...

Re: Odor from a Hagi cup

If its a 'nasty' smell, then it could be that they have been stored away when there was still moisture in the piece. In this case exactly the same happens as with any other object, bacteria growth..

Re: Show Off Your Teaware Displays

The following cupboards are not so fancy, but keep in mind they're kitchen cabinets ;) Lately i've been adding some bizen cups and bits to the collection, and surprisingly the neriage pieces are very pleasant to use.

Hope you enjoy. Maker is Seiko Sato. Herons and what i assume to be pine-cones (or maybe armadillos :D ).
