Glazed stoneware・Wood-fired・195ml
Ceramicist Liao Guo Hua works with a range of different clay bases and glazes, using long, five-day firings in wood kilns to draw out the uniqueness of each piece. This is one in a series of ten celadon pieces we commissioned in 2018 from Liao Guo Hua. This series features pale blue celadon glazing on the exterior, and a glazed interior. Each piece is then wood-fired for 5 days.
This egg-shaped tea pot has a distinct unglazed areas on the lid, and areas of the surface darken by iron oxide. The iron spots express as dark grey with a hint of mauve. The elegantly curved spout has 7 outlets for water evacuation. The simple finial and parts of the lid are unglazed. The foot of the teapot is unglazed, and signed by the artist.
Usage and care: Wood-fired pieces will season very slowly over time, though limited porosity allows for use of different tea types. Exterior of the teapot will deepen in color and develop a rich luster as it patinas. Hand-wash only without soap or detergent.
