unreal potmaker!
All you that have ever messed with clay will get a kick out of the ability of this pot maker. imagine the hardest possible way to make pots and that is what he does and does it outstanding!!!
Take a solid block of clay and take away what isn't a pot. It's like Michangelo all over again. I am amazed. http://www.ryuen.com/#English I wish I could read Japanese!

Tam, Are you saying there is a book detailing the work of Ryuen? Are you a potter? Tell me more about yourself and your experiences with clay.

Re: unreal potmaker!
Hello Bonsainut,
Whoops almost forgot who Tam [ Tambrand ] was , this site is so new to me.I followed Walter Pall's link out of the IBC gallery yesterday. Yes , there is a copy in reality of that Ryuen article , it's a long , thinnish book in Japanese on Mame' and small Bonsai. It is the sister companion to yet another long , thinnish book also in Japanese , but this one has a chap building in the slab technique. Each of these books features separately , [a]Conifers , [b]Decidious , trees. Yes, I am a potter of about twenty two years or so [ more a serious hobby ] , just a bit longer than I have been doing Bonsai [ closer toTree Penjing - clip and grow ]. I tried the carving out of a single block , it works , but it was a primitive try. Now that I know that there really was nothing " secret" in the article , and I have some spare time this year , I will try again. After Jan.2nd I will have more time to give to Bonsai , so I can visit this site and the IBC gallery more frequently. And you , your interests , being doing Bonsai long , making Bonsai pots ? Stay Well , Tambrand [ which is local dialect for Tamarind , a tree that grows wild down here - West Indies / Caribbean ] |

Thought I'd give this old thread a bump. Ryuen has a little new stuff (Slideshow is awesome) on this site. One of my all time favorites.

Old Bonsaiman-new pots

This is indeed an interesting site. I think I was the first to post this site address to another newsgroup about 3-4 years ago, but still like to look at it from time to time.
BTW, my wife, Nancy, makes a few pots from time to time. She ONLY makes mame pots and they are ALL carved from single blocks of clay. VERY time consuming. I used to do it some about 6 years ago but gave up due to time involved.! Here's some of Nancy's pots. Dale

[QUOTE=Bonsainut]Dale,
YOur wife's pots are cool. Adam, Thanks Adam, I have to be careful about telling her about compliments though. She gets greedy about her sales "cut"! Actually, I think most get given away by her at conventions as gifts. Dale
