Teapot
Teapot Complete! I have been in school for the last two years, and my final project was to design and raise a teapot out of copper. I then had it silver plated. You will know why I didn't make it out of silver if you have seen the price of silver lately. My design is based on a concrete wine cask shaped like an egg, check them out here, made by Nomblot.
At the end of last spring semester we had a tea party at Oregon College of Art and Craft and along with my four other classmates (who also completed their teapots, which doesn't always happen) we celebrated this grand accomplishment with Steven Smith tea that was selected by none other than artisan, teamaker Steven Smith himself to compliment each teapot design. For example, my dear friend Kathy made the cutest ever Panda teapot (see below) and he selected a lovely green tea blend. My Friend Adrian made a star teapot with a purple handle that was pouring a beautiful purple colored hibiscus tea. My teapot was chosen to hold the Oregon College of Art Craft blend.
