Lol, then I'm not the only one 😃. The truth is, I see his point, but these have to be handled and used with care as are not like the porcelain we use day by day. I bought a mug years ago, with the intention of using it for tea or milk, but the ceramics is so porous that in 3 minutes, the coaster was wet. Now I'm using it as a pencil holder. Also have a big plate, which serves to store fruits on it.
Transporting these is a real headache as all of these are fragile items. I was thinking if (let's say) I move to the Alps, how on earth I would transport ceramics for a full room 😂. Good thing I'm not there yet, so don't need to find a solution.
Thanks for the nice comment @delishtreats and I hope you can still have bits and pieces here and there to bring home 😀
