Kimita Kaoru Karastu Yunomi Video

Enjoy this video showing off my Karatsu yunomi by Kimita Kaoru.  This video includes narration of myself talking about the piece and what I enjoy the most of this wonderful simple yunomi.

Shibuya Eiichi Yunomi Video

I shot another video showing off some more of my teaware so you can get a bit of how the piece looks like in sizing, and when it is moving about.  Shibuya Eiichi is a real up an coming Hagi Artist and is the grandson of Shibuya Deishi another Hagi potter whose work I really admire, and use on a regular basis.  

Its rather funny as for the longest time every single Shibuya Eiichi piece I saw had a white glaze on the piece. The Kohiku Yunomi is in the first run of pieces I have seen from Eiichi which was not glazed in white, though it looks like a rather classic Hagi glaze, though it does not seem to be crackling and staining like most Hagi glazes.

Now On Youtube!

First and foremost I want to apologize for the somewhat sketchy quality of these videos, I will work on improving them, and also test various lighting conditions.  But I am launching a series of You tube videos featuring ceramics, and hopefully feature me brewing various types of tea showing off brewing styles and practices.

My first two are up, and they feature some nice Hagi Yaki pottery.  First up is the Kaneta Masanao Yunomi.  Now you can see how It looks in motion.

Second up is my family of Shibuya Deishi Wans! ( Chawan down to Yunomi).
