Buying a slice of History Antonio - I would be fearful of putting trees in these. You might have to start a Pot collection.

Thanks for the extra pics Antonio....next time I'm passing through Mex.., I mean Melbourne, I'll give you a buzz and take you up on your offer...thanks, :D

Pat

By the way...is your pottery class a Community Pottery Group? I really am thinking seriously about hitting the road and potting wherever I can....can anyone else tell me about community potteries in their areas? I know our group here in Tumut would welcome itinerant potters as long as they joined but I wonder if that is universal.

jezza most of these pots were left behind in favour of 40 yr old japanese & chinese pots, my luck. yes i have pretty much got most of the ellis now. they have been sitting outdoors for that long hence the beautiful aged glaze's but they cleaned up fairly easily. now did you say show off? cop this! :P
