Description
One of my last projects in ceramics this year! One of the most difficult for sure, but very fun and challenging. I used lots of slabs, and a molded bowl for the bottom of the teapot. There are also three more identical cups just like the one pictured. It is perfectly useable, and pours quite well, it's just a little heavy due to it's size... sorry I dont remember the name of the pink color, but it was a lowfire glaze, and the green was a mixture of dark kelp and light lime underglazes. Even though they're not really underglazes
Some duncan concepts stuff..

How pretty! I would have loved a tea set like this when I was six or seven. That was when I was crazy about pink.

Well, the teapot itself is about 20" round and 7 1/2" tall. There are four cups, and each are 9 1/2" round and 4" tall. Altogether the whole set took about a month or a little more, building and glazing. The frustrating part was Thursdays and weekends when I didn't have class, because if I didn't wrap everything up just right, it would start to dry out. It all worked out though

Neat! This was a really cool idea!
I like the detail of the rose petals and the leaves. It is definitely well-made.
I featured the tea set in this week's spotlight article - [link]

yeah I gotta admit it is pretty random, but we couldn't make just normal teapots, so I guess it turned out more interesting! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
