Pots for Tea






In the later winter months I am constantly seeking ways to keep warm. Living in Portland, Oregon, and primarily biking for transportation, I am often a bit soggy and chilled from the cold rain. A good pot of green tea and a woolly pair of slippers usually will do the trick.
Here are a few teapots that I just recently pulled out of the kiln. These pots are glazed with a sprayed Shino on the outside, and a copper glaze that surprised me with violet on the inside. The contrast of the earthy orange, and the electric violet on the inside is charming and fun.
