I have to thank you for the tip in an earlier video - open the base of a cylinder wider than needed to get the extra clay up and out of the bottom of a pot. Works like a dream! I too love the throwing lines in the chawans, wonderful character. Thanks for sharing.
I make it flat maybe a slight raising towards the edge but not worth worrying about.... loving the videos by the way they are an intriguing journey through an artists technical and (more so lately) aesthetic development. its good to see thanks for sharing it with us. kindest regards steve
@MagiusCD yes its a lot smoother than the crank i use now I think it has a little red earthenware in it to give it colour in electric / oxidised firings.
Hi Steve! Is the inside floor flat or does it dip slightly into the foot? I've never seen one of these up close. I'd like to make one and would like to do it properly. Thanks in advance ~ Tammy Jo :)
anywhere to buy cheap, nice chawan tea bowls? ive checked etsy but its a little pricey. i would love to make my own if i had access...if anyone is selling or knows please reply

The last one is without question the queen of the bunch. Very nice. Thank you.
Thanks. I agree the throwing lines and the spontaneous look of the pot are most pleasing.
They look great! I liked the ones with the throw lines!
Well, I learned something about chawan bowls after Googling it. Quite interesting, to say the least. Thanks for the enlightenment.

Wow I'm jealous of your skills- this is incredible!
First time I see someone throw a chawan without throwing off the hump
Beautiful
Very ingenious and beautiful :)

@MagiusCD this is a smooth stoneware I now use crank a heavily grogged stoneware that fires well in a wood fired kiln or reduction kiln.

I am compressing the rim with a leather strip to give a smooth edge for glazing
after you do the pinching, what are you doing to the lip of the bowl?
