Eclipse - Handthrown Tea Bowl

"My artwork is driven by my curiosity about the rhythms of the natural world and the intersections of landscape and the home. Motion in the landscape—weather, light, shadow, fauna—feeds my desire to create and inspires the organic shapes in my art. I am drawn to clay’s malleability and craft functional forms that people can integrate into their daily routines and rituals." - Alex Olson, ceramicist

These bowls from our dear friend and tea lover Alex Olson are a delight both to see and to hold. The white interior creates the perfect canvas for admiring the color of tea liquor, and the neutral earth tones pair beautifully with any season or cha xi. As these bowls are handmade, please expect slight variation in each piece. 

NOTE: White satin glazes tend to absorb tea oils and colors with use, aging along with your tea practice. If you wish to preserve the light color of these bowls, reserve them for use with light-colored teas only.

Measurements: 4.5" wide by 2.5" tall. Approximately 250mL capacity to the brim.
