Welcome back, @ferg! It is really neat to see Konishi's influence expressed through Taisuke's aesthetics. Cheers!ferg wrote: ↑Sun Feb 05, 2023 4:39 pmVictoria Hey Victoria! Long, long time. Glad to be welcomed back to the tea community.
Wow, I love all of the pictures!Goes without saying, it’s nice to see you’ve kept them, after all this time.
Those Taisuke pieces were definitely homed in the right place. Very rewarding to see his works find their way to be next to teacher. Amazing to see Konishi’s influence in his student’s future works.
Yes, excited to share this kyusu. I feel like he’s being held captive at Customs. Hoping they let him go within the next day or two.
Oh no! Well, best of luck. If it is coming from Japan then I am certain they will figure it out.
I agree with @pedant. There’s no harm done in putting them immediately into the fridge.

The fact that I can get a question out and receive information practically in real-time is truly invaluable.
Tending to my cat Jerry who had dental surgery today, and four teeth pulled. Suffice to say, he’s in rough shape at the moment, so spending time together. The kyusu post will have to wait another day or two. I kinda hyped it, so appreciate your patience.
Hope I’m not breaking rules with another somewhat unrelated post, but I believe cats and kyusu go together, at least in Japan, right?!
