Graduation Caps - Mementos of an Education
To the graduating classes of 2014 congrats. The post today features a set of graduation caps in memory of the ceremonies that mark achievement as a student. The caps are to honor graduates everywhere wishing for them much happiness and success in their futures.
Modern Asian Glazed Tea Cups Decorated with Grass Style Calligraphy - Japanese and Chinese Tea Rituals
These modernized tea cups are inscribed with calligraphy for poetic elements such as the moon. The cups are gifts from a close family member celebrating the fine ritual of the tea ceremony. I have been privileged to be served in an authentic Japanese tea ceremony and to visit fine Chinese tea rooms as well. The memory of gently holding the tea cup and absorbing the warmth, fragrance and gentle steam of the tea is unforgettable. The style of the cups in this post form a nice East-West artifact and a set of mementos for the ritual of tea time.
