HAKU-ENYU REVISTED

I took a moment and put together a rather short slideshow video of the haku-enyu chawan by Iwabuchi Shigeya that I had here for a short while and is now at home across the pond. Though it is not what you immediately think of as an "exciting" chawan it was a real pleasure to handle and study as it possessed a rather comforting and honest sensibility that made for a rather pleasurable conversation, even if it was short. I truly enjoy the way Iwabuchi handled clay and I hope that this video may give a glimpse in to the heart of the bowl.
