"Take Out Tea", 2009.This is the completed tea set arrangement for the Irvine Fine Arts Center 2nd Annual Tea Set Exhibition.
The clay is Southern Ice Porcelain Paperclay. I decided to low fire with a clear crackle glaze 'cos the tea pot had a couple of hairline cracks at the corners and I did not want to risk it cracking (which it probably would) in a Cone 10 high fire.
I made the fortune cookies just for the fun of it and to complement the take out feeling of the set. The handle for the tea pot is braided from 3 steel wires. Size of tray is 14"W x 10"D.
For more information about the Tea Set Exhibition, please see the earlier posting below.

Quite a tasteful and artistic tea set - my better half has a huge array of teapots.
There is a semi-reprint in electronic form of the feature on you that appeared as the Main Section cover artist for the 2007-08 Fall/Winter print journal edition at www.arttoartpalette.com
