Beautiful and bright, this pair of footed tea bowls shine matt satin with delicate off white tones and olive green hints. We particularly enjoy all the intricate speckled details running throughout. A joy to hold with a smooth surface and the pronounced lip makes it great to sip from. These would be perfect for your gong fu tea sessions.
This series of tea bowls are part of Charlie’s continuing experimentation, research, and development into wood ash glazes and tea bowl shapes, each is unique.
Charlie Collier creates functional hand thrown stoneware pieces that have an effortless simplicity and beauty to them made to enhance occasions and enrich our daily lives. Admiring the philosophy, that pots are ‘born, not made’ Charlie follows an organic approach to the creative process with the clay, paying particular detail to shape and form and instinctively knowing at which point a form is complete. He creates pieces that have a honest connection, energy and real character to them, something that you only feel with a handmade item.
