New Teaware, Teas

It was a good holiday season this year. Among other things, I got a lot of new teas and teawares. Much of the bounty is courtesy of ABx from TeaChat, including this lovely gaiwan (made famous by GeekGirlUnveiled, also from TeaChat) from Serenity Art in Portland.

Dragon gaiwan and cups

Also in that photo are two new celadon cups from Dragon Tea House and a neat little plate from Daiso. There's plenty more en route (I wasn't smart enough to bring a big suitcase home with me), so stay tuned. Between the teaware and the samples ABx sent, I have a lot to write about.

Yes, yes, I'll take some color shots too. :P

it *is* a beautiful gaiwan. can't tell for sure from the b/w photo -- is that gold in the dragon's dorsal fin?

Corax,

There is gold paint in the design. I can't remember if it's in the dorsal fin, but I'll let you know when I get my hands on it again.

Thanks!
