Vase – handthrown dark clay coated with a white matte glaze. This is the last piece of a series of twelve. Maybe I keep it for my house and my flowers: I am sure all potters know the feeling when a favourite work is gone, it is often followed from a kind of emptiness. That is why I keep a work from time to time because I try to avoid this feeling. Silly, I know….

Teacups coated with a green celadon craquele glaze – there are always some of these in my shop because I love them very much: I started with this shape more then ten years ago and it is still one of my favourites and I think it is a timeless classic. I also make them in porcelain or in a black clay as well as in regular stoneware in different colors: In a warm brown, an ice blue and in the green you see on the pic.

Porcelain teabowl – I like the very fine form of the bowl and it is a pleasure to drink a warm tea – especially when it is so horrible cold outside: below zero celsius here in Switzerland .

My Japan trip comes to an end: Last day in Tokyo with three of my teacups, an iron black one, a translucent porcelain one and a celadon green one. I spent very interesting days in Japan and met wonderful people around, drunk a lot of tea and coffee as well and and and….. I really hope to come back one day: Million thanks to all the Japanese, you are just great!

Tokyo and Tadao Ando and colors in November – my Japan trip has started very colorful with sunshine and rain at the same day. I am jetlagged but happy to be here.
