The comments of others also influence on ones judgment. <BR/><BR/>At the end is it the reputation or other people's judgements that will make us choose which one ?<BR/><BR/>When buying such bowls, It must be a solace moment. One of personal communion. <BR/><BR/>I heard of a story of someone visiting a great potter (I can't remember any names) This visitor could choose any piece he wanted -some retailing for very large sums. He chose a tiny bowl. <BR/><BR/>One of my teachers, goes to visit his oldest dealer every couple of years and on the very top shelf, lies one of his earlier bowl.<BR/> every visit he makes after 35 years it is still there and he can't get his courage together to buy it back! <BR/><BR/>Needless to say one should choose with the heart.Michelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139214520499712064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693176331381554957.post-9256104897196775712008-07-23T07:47:00.000-07:002008-07-23T07:47:00.000-07:00Thanks Matt for introducing/sharing such a rare co...Thanks Matt for introducing/sharing such a rare collection. Knowledge on Korean traditional pottery/tea is very new to me, the more I ask, the more mixed information I receive.... Thanks for clearing up the murky information, with your continuous positive details and passion on these subjects. I am learning it with much enjoyment.tokihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17022633186053977362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693176331381554957.post-20789953629229757082008-07-23T03:03:00.000-07:002008-07-23T03:03:00.000-07:00Stephane,Yes, as a matter of fact one was going to...Stephane,<BR/><BR/>Yes, as a matter of fact one was going to post these pictures but some of them were a little fuzzy at the time of posting so, one had to retake them and post them here.<BR/><BR/>One also noted that Ginkgo and Michel liked #1 but chose #3. One thought it strange that they didn't go with that one, them being potters and all. One thinks the photo of the chop on the foot of #3 might have lured some people toward choosing #3 as the most expensive.<BR/><BR/>One thinks that the well traveled Toki pretty much hit the nail on the head with his comment but left an ambigouous answer as too which one is the most expensive.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02736984697520031171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1693176331381554957.post-39268511518956314412008-07-23T00:00:00.000-07:002008-07-23T00:00:00.000-07:00Excellent!

It makes me wonder if many would have changed their opinion had they seen these 3 pictures instead of the other pictures!... Gorgeous.<BR/><BR/>I find it worth noting that Ginkgo and Michel (both potters) liked #1 best! (Even if they also believed #3 was the most expensive).TeaMastershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02433657904904185875noreply@blogger.com
