From an infantile pre-occupation with the iron age remains of the peat bogmen due to an almost premature introduction by my grandfather and archaeologist Professor P.V Glob, iron, peat and clay are formed into archaic ritual vessels.

Unomi Teabowls Shallow
bowls, which allow the tea to cool rapidly, are used in summer; deep bowls are used in winter. Bowls are frequently named by their creators or owners, or by a tea master.

Irregularities and imperfections are prized: they are often featured prominently as the “front” of the bowl. |
