Hans Vangsø

Hans Vangsø is one of Denmark's leading potters. His Chawans (Teabowls) have a quiet simplicity, spiritually Vangsø is related to Eastern ceramics particularly "Mingei", a word which Yanagi used to describe an aesthetic truth which he saw only in folk art.
The bowls are fired several times to obtain the textural glazes and volcanic/pitted surfaces and subtle colours that Hans seeks. His bowls are rare and much sought after. Oakwoodceramics are delighted to exhibit work by this very important Danish potter.
