Over the past couple of years I've been fortunate to collaborate with chef Mathew Krammerer at the Harbor House Inn to create some unique pottery for his guests to enjoy. Pictured above are small, side-pouring teapots called Kyushu(s), which are destined for the dining room. Matt gives all the artists he works with free reign to do what they do best, but he was insistent that the textured surface of these teapots remain unglazed. To this I willingly agreed, recognizing as Matt did that an unglazed surface would compliment, rather than contrast, the unmatched beauty of the Mendocino coast which the Inn seeks to underscore.
