An array of beautifully crafted bowls and cups, featuring varying textures, glazes, and decorative patterns from different cultures.

Tea Bowl, 12th-13th century, 2-7/16 x 4-7/16 x 4-7/16 in. (6.2 x 11.3 x 11.3 cm), Chi-chou ware Stoneware with brown glaze to the exterior with papercut decoration reserved in dark brown against a variegated buff ground on the interior, China, 12th-13th century, A dark-brown glaze with buff-colored tortoiseshell markings covers the exterior of this small tea bowl. Reserved on the interior in reddish-brown glaze are three openwork panels of quatrefoil shapes, perhaps representing peony blossoms, set against a richly variegated buff glaze. The golden buff glaze crawled downward from the lip during firing creating a streaked and mottled effect on the interior. Archaelogical evidence shows similar bowls to have been made at the Chi-chou kilns at Yung-ho in central Kiangsi province.

Date: 19th century.This bowl, part of a wedding trousseau, comprised of thirty-one pieces, represents late Edo-period maki-e (decoration in gold and/or silver sprinkled powder) art at its finest. The Shimazu family, lords of Satsuma in Kyushu, ordered this traditional trousseau most likely for Taka-hime, who was married to Matsudaira Sadakazu, lord of Kuwana (Ise Province), around 1830.The items of the wedding set are decorated with various auspicious motifs. The evergreen pine represents longevity and also symbolizes renewal. The fast-growing, springy, but at the same time very strong and enduring bamboo also stands for longevity and represents endurance and strength. The plum blossoms are the first flowers of spring, representing the renewal of nature. The combination of the "Three Friends of Winter"--originating from China--is associated with celebrDish.

Porcelain with white glazeFlower-Shaped Tray (Rinka-bon) 15th century Japan With a lobed silhouette inspired by Chinese flower-shaped ceramics and lacquers, this tray represents the high esteem in which medieval Japan held imported Chinese art works (karamono). Such precious objects came to Japan with the introduction of new schools and teachings of Buddhism, especially that of Zen. Chrysanthemum-shaped trays were made by Japanese craftsmen from around the mid-thirteenth century. Most of these trays were used with tenmoku tea bowls to serve tea.. Flower-Shaped Tray (Rinka-bon).

It is shaped like a lotus and embellished with carved decoration that provides a continuous scene of lotus blossoms, pods, and leaves.

This small jar has a bulbous body, a pronounced shoulder decorated with horizontal incised lines, a high, slightly flaring neck, and an everted rim.Three nearly identical jars were excavated at Sangtarashan, south of modern Khorramabad in Luristan in western Iran, which archaeologists have identified as a riutal site of some kind where offerings, includings these jars, were made. Two more jars were excavated at Khatunban, als in Luristan (approximately 34 miles 55 km west of Nihavend, where Ernst Herzfeld acquired this jar). Both were found in graves along with vessels with long spouts. This pairing suggests a set of drinking vessels: a liquid would be poured from the spouted vessel into the jar, which was used as a cup -- it is about the size of a modern tumbler. It is not known what this liquid was, but wine is a good possibility. Winemaking is attested at Godin Tepe (28 miles 45 km northeast of Khatunban) as early as ca. 3000 B.C., and the deep bodies and lCome from porcelain with decoration of dragonfly and flowers, Theo Schmuz-Baudiss, c. 1900 Come from porcelain; The mouth edge has been squeezed four times, creating a four -pass form.

The object is typical of buncheong ware-- characterized by white-slip decoration and produced on the peninsula from the late fourteenth through the midsixteenth century--with stamp-impressed designs. Inscriptions indicate the court offices that commissioned the vessels. The dish was made in Gyeongju to be sent to the office of Jangheunggo, which supplied items like paper and mats to the court.
