More Ken Pincus Pottery!

a gorgeous slab plate, deep turquoise green
Over the last few years I have attended the annual Aki Matsuri exhibit of Ikebana at the Buddhist Henjyoji Temple in Portland. Each time I came home with beautiful pieces of Ken Pincus pottery, and today was no exception. I bought a beautiful slab plate and covered jar. Both pieces were blue/green/turquoise. I love these colors in my home, they really pop against the wood and earthy colors.

think I'll use it as a ginger jar
Although I always go shopping with the intention of giving the pieces as Christmas gifts, I've held on to more than I have let go. Here are several of the pieces I've bought over the last few years. Of these, the only one I don't still have is the turquoise cylinder in the picture with the pair of cylinder vases (below).

  1. Beautiful pottery! Wonderfully formed and the glazes are amazing. I bet they are hard to put down once you pick them up.

  2. Of course you bought them ... Ceramics, so soothing for the hand and eye. Yup. Last month I bought 3 bowls/cups in Thailand because the glaze and feel were irresistible too.
