Teabowls

We have a teapot gallery , I would like to see more Teabowls on show any pics you have post this way , I think investment wise they are a good buy , easy to post , relatively cheap in most cases , also it means in theory you could buy a small piece of a well known potters work as opposed to there much larger and more expensive pieces , they are easy to display as well , so whatever you want to call them Teabowls Chawans etc. I for one would like to see them , Unomis/ yunomis welcome

Studio pottery collectors eh - who needs them?

Can't get to it at the mo for a better photo, but I think this is probably the only proper one (studio, contemporary, not a tumbler or sugar bowl) I have that fits the bill.

The Henderson would probably meet the Japanese criteria for a good teabowl i.e. it leaks.

I am informed that the preferred teabowls in Japan are those made of raku, which leak, followed by Hagi, which also leak.

I'll dig out some images of Japanese ones.

Found some Japanese/Chinese ones

These teabowls & saucers were sold in Tiger a couple of years ago for just a few quid, but I think they're really beautiful. Unmarked.




A friend bought this for me in a posh store in Paris (she says ). Crystalline glaze.
It has a Kanji/Kangxi mark on the footrim which I can't read.
