In a very modest way I am a collector of glass and pottery ware - I have some items of Raku made by Pat Armstrong, as the core of my small collection. I Quite agree with all the sentiments about the Beauty of the pots, which to my eye are a wonderful combination of both shape and color. I wish I could touch for the texture.
Also agree we should be using Cypriot made items, where we can, rather than imports.
