The vendor and demo area... View attachment 150524




Did you happen to catch a sticker price on this Raintree? Assuming it was for sale, of course!!:cool::cool::cool::cool:


Great photo's under the circumstances.....:)


Looked like @Adair M was holding court.....coaching up the hoard?!?!

Very impressive quality.....the "light" at the end of the tunnel just got a little further away.....:(:D:D:D:D:D

Congrats to you Adair! That was the one that caught my eye the most. Exquisite! And cheers to everyone else who obviously put in a lot of thought and skill to put together a show to rival any others. If the dog hadn't had surgery, I would've seen it in person, but at least the pictures are really really good. Thanks for posting!

Michael Ryan Bell's lecture on the history of shohin pots with some visual aids from Matt Ouwinga 's personal collection. Tofukuji, Heian Koran, Yusen, Chinese and Japanese antiques. The value of the pots on that 8' table is ridiculous... there should be armed guards on either side of it.

The one on the left...more vase than you would like...but.....I think I want it....I know I want it...did you catch a glimpse at it's cost? Any point under a grand would seem reasonable/doable.....but I know it's more!!!!:(:(:(:confused::confused::D:D:D:D:D

Don't know what I would do with it besides stare at it on a shelf....I could live with those limitations....:rolleyes::D:D:D:D:D
