17th Yunomi Invitational, Clay Akar, Iowa City
Late July 2023 Yunomi Invitational opens online only Friday at 10:00 AM CST. Show date TBD
Definition of Yunomi (U-No-Me): A cup with a trimmed or turned foot, without a handle. Unlike the more formal Chawan tea bowl, which is used during the Japanese tea ceremony, the Yunomi is made for daily (or informal) tea drinking. While a Chawan is not too tall and narrow for vigorous whisking of tea and is held with two hands, a Yunomi is taller and not as wide and used mostly to drink tea made with tea leaves and held with one hand.

“Ceramic artist and china painter Melanie Sherman creates beautiful sterling silver jewelry pieces with porcelain stones. Decorated with vintage decals from Europe and Asia, these one-of-kind pieces tell the story of historic porcelain wares, used as dinnerware in 18thCentury.”
My ceramics are handmade and painted with the finest overglazes from Europe. The gold luster used is 24k liquid Gold from Germany. Every piece is unique. My imagery is inspired by vintage Meissen dinnerware, William Morris wallpaper and other historic sources.
