Amazing! I love the communication, packaging, and product. This is definitely a business I want to support. I would love it if there was a chasen of this quality available with neutral bamboo, as that is what I prefer to use in chado practice, but I'm am already very happy with this option.
Very inspiring and helpful for anyone like me who wants to start a pottery business. I really liked how honest and practical it feels. It gave me a lot of motivation to stop overthinking and just start. You can tell Abel truly understands the struggles of beginners and shares his real experience instead of generic advices. Definitely recommend it!
Great resource for anyone trying to make their pottery a business! I’m been doing pottery for a few years and am now trying to be more serious. This is an excellent resource for anyone needing some more step by step guides. Thank you!
I have started on the first few chapters of the ebook and I am very pleased with my purchase so far. The writing style makes it very personable and easy to read. It feels like taking advise from a close and kind friend :) It makes me think starting my little business may be daunting but definitely doable!
The Matcha Whisk Holder - Mori Series was delivered exactly as pictured and well packed. I was also expecting it to take longer to get to me, but was presently surprised when it arrived within a week in the Netherlands. It is that one extra beautiful part of my almost daily tea ritual that makes it more of an intentional practice and break in my day!
The seemingly endless list of tasks to consider when setting up a new small business is enough to cause total overwhelm or even put you off doing it altogether. Breaking it down into small, manageable steps is the only way to push forward and that’s where the ‘Turn Your Passion for Pottery into a Thriving Business’ E-book comes in. It’s written in a friendly way which feels like it supports you on your journey. It helps you to formulate a step-by-step plan and takes the mystery and uncertainty away. It’s a practical guide and also a very honest one, based on the writers’ personal experience of building his own successful ceramics business.
I enjoy dipping in and out if it, when I’m ready to tackle further steps.
The cost of the book was very reasonable and I feel that I have jumped a significant number of steps ahead of where I would have been without it.
The bowl is amazing, it was love at first sight. I don’t really make matcha, but I’ll be having some extra luxurious breakfasts in it. Now please just make some hinoki in blue and I’ll reach my bowl peace.
The pieces look fabulous,exactly how I imagined they would. They were packed into the box very carefully.
An excellent summer tea bowl. The texture is subtle, I almost wish for more to interact with. It’s a calm piece. I will probably just use this as a bowl since I also purchased another Teabowl.
Wow! I was looking for a large fruitbowl and love the Inyo style, but it is even more beautiful in real life. Can highly recommend a piece made by Abel. The bowl is very big, and I was worried about the shipment, but it was very well packaged. Thank you so much!!
Very happy with the Matchabowl Yuki.
High quality and beautiful shape and colours.
Beautiful bowl!
Love the texture
Really happy to get this small piece of ceramics ! The blue is so deep and beautiful !I now prepare my matcha with a true pleasure
My order arrived to the US safely packaged and each item is absolutely stunning.
Beautifully made pieces to treasure. Thank you xx
Beautiful and well made!! Just the most stunning piece in a functional form, I’m obsessed with it!
These have a great graceful curve to the form and incorporated trimmed foot.. A great conservative size to this more vertical bowl. I look forward to its multi-uses.
I like the differences in style offerings, but these were also the Inyo. The minimalist glaze style with glaze runs show off the clay body used. It might be a personal appreciation, but I’ve formed a connection. I’m also a potter, and used to do this . It doesn’t connect with the people in my area. I hope it does for you.
beautiful cups with the most gorgeous flowing glaze, a joy to use every day and a reminder to enjoy the ‘little’ moments in life, like a morning cup of coffee or afternoon tea :)
These cups are the most beautiful I own. They are the same but different, so unique. I have them displayed on my shelves. Also the perfect size
I managed to grab a few of these plates in the last shop update and I could not be happier! I fell in love with the Inyo series glaze combo the second I saw it months ago, and it is somehow even more stunning in person! The plates themselves are the perfect size and have an incredible hand-feel and I have been using them every day since my order arrived - honestly could not recommend them enough!
Just as described online and well made.
I like tea bowls or matcha bowls as a baseline attraction. I usually go for a more curvy profile. Each maker’s version/form gives me something new to appreciate. This has a more rigid form and a clean cut foot than others -and a spout . It is refreshing to add this to my collection. It has a quieter posture of integrity.
I hope this style, Inyo, is getting the customer appreciation it deserves. The more minimal exterior glaze coverage gives a visual and sensory texture change and allows the user to hopefully take a moment and appreciate the clay body as well.
