Mashiko Pottery Festival has Finished. (and news!)

The Mashiko Pottery Festival has finished.
It was a long 9 days, from April 29th to May 7th.

The weather was very good this year, without any storms.
And many people dropped in at Euan's store. People who we've known for a long time, people who we met for the first time.
Thank you all very much.

But we are very tired after the pottery festival.


So we are going to do some of the piles of the other things, take some time, then Euan is going to make pots again soon.

The pots with this year's chicken stamp are waiting for the firing.







And we have news!

It is a limited small space, so if you are interested in Euan's works, you can come to our Pottery Studio Gallery here, and you can see more of his pots.

Sad news...

Australian potter John Dermer, our good friend, told us sad news yesterday.

Peter Rushforth passed away yesterday morning.

He is the most influential Australian potter of the 20th century.
He was also a very kind and fascinating man.

When we visited him, he and his wife welcomed us.
I still remember that they took our children to see horses at their neighbourhood farm.








Even though he was a very famous potter, and many potters respected him,
he was never too proud, he had a good sense of humour and he was an openhearted man.

I'd like to write my Condolences here.

We pray that his soul may rest in peace.

Thank you very much.

Catalogue blog updated !

I updated our Catalogue Blog.

Sake Bottles "TOKKURI", Sake Cups "GUINOMI",
"SHUKI", "SAKAZUKI".

There are Platters, Lidded bowls and more of Euan's works on the blog,

I will update his works sometimes, please visit and check the Catalogue Blog.

Pottery Festival has finished.

Thank you vey much for visiting Euan's spot at Mashiko Pottery festival.
We were very happy to see you.

I think many people were surprised to see Euan's kick wheel demonstration.
I hope you enjoyed it.

About half of the works which he made there survived, and were trimmed.
I don't know how many pots can survive the firing.

There is a problem with the bearing of this kick wheel, so he has to replace it later.

And I would like to tell you that Euan's home page has been renewed!

I have worked for a long time to make a new design for it.

http://euancraig.web.fc2.com

I will add more information and photos, and update new works.

I hope you like it.
