While this caddy still reflects the overall katatsuki (straight shoulder) style, the gentle ripples of the surface more readily suggest the potter’s touch, in contrast to more precisely geometric Chinese examples.Flask probably 18th-19th century.

The vessel was possibly among the earliest objects made for the tourist market in Cairo, where an influx of European visitors in the second half of the 19th century sought out souvenirs to bring home to an audience overcome with Egyptomania. Ceramic centers, like in Asyut, produced works to satiate a desire for exotic and apparently authentic goods. This ewer, for example, may have appealed to the tourist market by continuing centuries-old craftsmanship traditions, such as the water filter inserted in the neck..

The enameled flowers and cockatoos are typical of local interpretations of Art Nouveau, while the blue enamel inside the bowl evokes the masterworks of Peter Carl Fabergé (1846-1920).
