DESCRIPTIVE DATA

object type: Water dropper in the form of a haet'ae. Porcelain, moulded, incised, painted in cobalt-blue and glazed. This water dropper has the shape of a seated haet'ae, a mythical animal believed to be able to extinguish fires. A hole on the back of the animal serves for filling and another in its mouth for pouring water onto an inkstone.  The pupils of the eyes and the mane are emphasised in underglaze-blue.  A pale bluish glaze evenly covers the piece.  The base is flat and the piece was fired on a fine sandy support.
