Prompted by Matthew Katz's post on Slipcast - The Ceramics Blog (link), about
razor-thin ceramics bowls developed by Taiwanese based potter Huang Tseng-
nan, I went to one of my Chinese porcelain tea-bowls to try to see how thin it
was (it is quite delicate). This bowl features a branch of a flowering plant, with a
beetle crawling on the flower. To my pleasant surprise there was this beautiful
Praying Mantis hiding behind it. Don't know about the thickness (without any
measuring tools), but I got these nice pictures of the two:
