Some new matcha tea bowls are out of the kiln and now in my shop in Zurich. I often drink matcha tea when I want to stop drinking too much coffee. I confess that I drink a lot of black coffee with sugar. Maybe because my father was an italian? Anyway, I love these matcha tea bowls with or without tea and: I am very happy with the combination of the black glaze and the dark red clay from spain. I was not at all sure if that would match. And I think it does.

Done! Tomorrow Monday my first guest presents his project: Leopold Isidor Krebs – an artist and a landscape architecture student – shows his plants in pots I have thrown for this project. Leopold likes eating exotic fruits – and also loves plants. So he kept seeds from the fruits he ate and planted them to see if they would grow in rather cold Switzerland… And it is like a miracle: Ananas, Maracuja, Avocado and many more are growing in his nursery. Black stoneware and a simple cylindrical shape in various diameters and heights seem to provide a firm base and offer solid protection for these delicate plants. I am very happy to present this installation in my shop from April, 10 to May, 20 – come and have a look, it is simply beautiful! #green #ceramics #plants #pots #exhibition #keramik #spring #pottery #glaze #perfection #handmade #craft #series #making #simple #elegant #contemporaryart #perfect #collection #black #zurich #switzerland #art #photo #concept #installation #japan #drink #guest #minimal Likes: [igp-likes]... 09 April, 2017
Again a spring impression with tea and one of my teabowls, this one is coated with a green craquele celadon glaze. It was a busy day in my shop: Next Tuesday I will start with my first ‘guest’ at my studio and I am very curious to see the result of what he started creating today……A landscape architecture student brings his ideas in my world of pots and I am very excited! Unfortunately I have a rib fracture and so I can only sit in my studio and drink some tea – too much pain for anything else . #tea #ceramics #green #teabowl #tableware #keramik #spring #pottery #glaze #perfection #handmade #craft #series #making #simple #elegant #contemporaryart #perfect #collection #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #art #photo #concept # exhibition #japan #drink #guest #minimal Likes: [igp-likes]... 06 April, 2017
