Alex asked me to make some Yunomi (Japanese tea bowls) as he is taking part in a tea-making competition. I tried several shapes, clays and glazes. These are made of crank clay, so very groggy, finished in a shiny brown and grey/blue glaze.

The ones Alex has chosen are similar to these but have a white interior to show off the colour of the tea, important for his competition.
