Hello all: I've been looking for a box maker for teabowls. The   Wabiarts  doesn't seem to be what it once was. Any ideas? Thanks

Craig,

They are still in business. They just lost their web host.

Write at this address: Chika <chik...@zeus.eonet.ne.jp>

You can use the Wayback Machine to look at the old webpage if you need to.

We are working with a woodworker who is trying to perfect the boxes and if he does I will pass on the information to you.

 

He sourced some Kiri wood from a small kiln/lumber yard locally.  The first try was OK but not up to standard.

 

Email me in a month or so to see if he figures it out.

Hello All: I just heard back from   Wabiarts  and they don't make boxes anymore:O(. A sad day indeed.

Darn! There is another place. When Mungyeong is over, I'll look
into it. May require Japanese.

Last year, at the Festival, they gave us 5 boxes.

Craig,
I'll ask my supplier if they will ship internationally. They make a range of boxes, downright cheap to reasonably priced to very expensive.
