Re: Hokujo teaware

Wow it looks so tiny :D its a cute one!
I have to ask... hows the pour?
I've been thinking for awhile now about replacing my old direct filter pot with a nanban one... but the the pour( and the price) are scaring me off :lol:
Any problems you've noticed so far yet?

Re: Yixing

^Nice 70's shui! I know f2 probably does not have the best reputation(maybe it it deserves it) but they did I think definitely produce some nice stuff earlier on and in fact early on they used the same clay that f1 was using at the time... Here's my 80's zini xian piao. Clay is really smooth and glo...

Re: Gisui Natsume(eggplant) kyusu

Looks like I can't edit the title again but it looks like I made a mistake in making the title.
I meant to write "eggplant"(茄) instead of "pear” :mrgreen:
Sorry for the mix-up!

Re: Ode to the Kyusu

well... damn :lol:

Nice nanban pot :!:

Re: Gisui Natsume kyusu(140ml)

Thanks to everyone who showed interest in this, but ive decided im going to take this one off the market. Probably a bad time to be selling teapots so close to the holidays anyway accounts for less interest+ my own renewed interest in experimenting with it means im just going to hold on to this one ...
