This spectacular Chawan is the work of Master Zhuang – one Taiwan’s most original ceramic artists. His work comprises of figurative pieces to utilitarian ones of very large size. His interest in making tea wares stems from his personal love for tea. Still, his output of tea related items reflects his highly original style for which we have found no equivalent in Taiwan. This piece is certainly an exemplary statement of this. This larger 500 ml piece could also serve as a shuifang (refuse jar) but its unique finish and beauty merits a more appreciative use, we think. It was first hand-turned with a flat bottom, straight walls and a thicker lip in the Japanese tradition. The finishing reveals obvious protrusions on the outer surface, on which the glazes either flows around or avoids, creating visual and tactile focal points of the piece. Blue hues transpire through the neutral pale grey glaze with noticeable red splatters that highlight the piece both on the inside and outside surfaces. A final clear top glaze was applied to give luster and depth to the piece. Master Zhuang is a reputed award-winning potter from Sun Moon Lake, with whom we have developed a unique working relationship fueled by friendship. His work, like the man himself, is highly original, and like all the work featured in our Handcrafted Section, each item is unique and signed by the artist. Handmade in Taiwan.
