I’m a tea lover and a potter, and to celebrate dropping my latest line of abstract zodiac tea bowls, trays, and cups, I’m giving away a Taurus tea bowl and lid/tray. The winner will receive it free, with free shipping within the continental USA (you’ll be charged only for shipping if you’re anywhere else).

See my post on my Instagram (@hendmadeceramics — also in my bio) for how to enter. You can enter until 11:59 PST on May 5, 2026. Good luck!

Made intersecting astrological abstract icons in Illustrator (multiple iterations), then ironed together silkscreens made of mesh and HTV cut with a Cricut. 3D printed sizing ribs at the local library for free, and used them on the wheel to throw tea cups, tea bowls, and trays. Made some diy underglaze from scratch, thickened it with silkscreen medium, and silkscreened icons onto hard leather-hard work. Latex over icons on bisque ware, followed by a long and purposefully messy dip in Laguna’s Bengal Tiger glaze (fake Shino-y) and a cone 5.5 firing. Ended sanding each foot with 80, 400, then 2500 grit. I was pleased with the result, and am now testing different glazes for each of the four elements associated with the zodiac, to do these right and with porcelain.
