A rough red Raku ware painted in a salmon pink over a cream slip and decorated with a fine pine sapling and inscription in black (‘His longevity like a mountain , his ancestors all come from the East to celebrate his 83rd birthday’); this is possibly when the original owner visited the Sumiyoshi Shrine, and bought the tea bowl outside the shrine .

Raku spiral in the centre of the foot ring. title: tea bowl NOTES ----- type: history note value: unknown before Frank Brangwyn RA LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Applied Arts collection: Frank Brangwyn Collection creditline: purchased with the Glaisher Fund STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/72833 SUBJECTS ------------------- Sumiyoshi Shrine TECHNIQUES ---------- glazing (coating) TECHNIQUES ---------- slip dipping TECHNIQUES ---------- hand-built CATEGORIES ------ category: earthenware DATING ------ creation date: 1800 - 1899 creation date earliest: 1800 creation date latest: 1899 culture: 19th Century culture: Edo period (1615-1868) / Meiji period (1868-1912) CREATORS -------- maker: Koetsu DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: cm value: 9.50 IMAGES surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_281_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/mid_C_190_1934_281_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_281_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/preview_C_190_1934_281_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_282_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/mid_C_190_1934_282_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_282_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/preview_C_190_1934_282_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_283_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/mid_C_190_1934_283_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_283_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/preview_C_190_1934_283_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_284_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/mid_C_190_1934_284_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/C_190_1934_284_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa10/preview_C_190_1934_284_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels
