I met Eric a couple of weeks ago. He makes rather incredible pots that look like logs and trees.

Is that a teapot?
Wow. You could do a woodland tableau, his trees, your critters.
That IS a teapot. I think he spends weeks making one.
Absolutely amazing. Give the detail and the work involved, I guess it's probably for the $6k that he's asking, too. :-(
Fabulous pot. I shall quiz Graham to tell me how it's made. 6k USD? He must have a helluva reputation to make that sort of dosh... :-)
I want a slice of that action! Good god, what can I make and charge six k for? Maybe LARGER pigs. Yeah, that's it.
I don't know that I could ever use a $6k teapot. I'd rather a $60 one that I use.
Think of dusting all those little crevices.
It sure is nice, but I could never do anything like that...I just don't have that kind of patience! :(
That's a pot? Good god! Amazing.
You're right about the dusting though. I would only buy a 6k teapot if I could also afford a maid to dust it for me!
6k does not mean kilometers....
why woody make these?? for 6K! wow..
