What can I say? The pictures capture it all.
2 kindred spirits from across the world unknowingly came together to create an inspiring tea set. These people are of course, Fujiwara Akira of Bizen, Japan; and Simon Manoha of Rocles, France. Fantastic potters with distinctive nature-driven styles; styles very a-typical of their regions. Their wares don’t appear to have been created, but rather, manifested from the clay which was used — both minimally filtered mountain clays in most cases.
The tea pot is brand new, it has never prepared tea. I am sorry to say the cup has been sold already.
