NEWSLETTER 28 - ASIA



J.C. HERMAN IN ASIA


as announced in the previous mail, j.c. herman ceramics
will close its doors for half a year, the second half of 2018.


the doors when they were still open


this is to make a study trip to asia, namely: japan, korea and china.


overview of the intended trip


there we will learn how to work better with porcelain,

 
porcelain clay consists of kaolin, silicon and feldspar


how to paint more accurately with cobalt oxide (blue),

 
painting with cobalt oxide


visiting potters in the countryside,
but also to study the larger scale ceramics industry (arita, jingdezhen, dehua).

     
arita, jingdezhen and dehua




YOU NOT IN ASIA



the webshop will be closed in that period of July-December 2018.
the last few months we have produced a lot,
to have sufficient stock for our resellers.


 
vivian hann sells our tableware


they will continue to sell when we are not here:
vivian hann, haarlemmerdijk 102 in amsterdam,
who sells the same series as in our webshop
and restored, haarlemmerdijk 39 in amsterdam,
which sell a cup and bowl especially designed for them


 
restored was our first ever reseller!


new orders will be forwarded to January 2019.
the tableware series will remain in production, also after this closing period.

   
RONDO green and PIEDI black, two of our tableware series


from July-December you can follow our travel experiences on
facebook and instagram,
however, the question is whether those platforms will be accessible from china.
we will see.

 
apparently there's some censorship in china


we will anyway see a great deal.
and presumably you too, in the acquired knowledge and experience
that will be visible in our new work in 2019.

 
concealed growth



hoping to meet you again in 2019,
in our studio, or elsewhere.

with kind regards,

herman verhagen
potter of
j.c. herman ceramics
