insert waki ( kanji is ludicrous)
Moriage is a common name on slip or colored clay string decoration, mostly on Japanese porcelain, in look not unlike 'cake frosting' in which a diluted clay has been used to give the piece a three dimensional appearance.
Gosu (??)= cobalt blue
Pigment made of natural cobalt (~5% cobalt content). Historically, magnesium, iron, and aluminum impurities gave this glaze a greyish-blue tone (Crueger et al. 2006:286; Ross 2012:5). Around 1870, gosu was replaced by a chemically-produced and less expensive cobalt oxide that creates a brighter, more intense blue (Jahn 2004:342). While most of the ceramics in this collection are decorated with chemically-produced cobalt, AACC-99-009 appears to have been hand painted with natural gosu pigment.
Karako (??) is a Japanese term used in art with the depiction of Chinese children playing. The literal translation means "Tang children". The children tend to be depicted with a particular hairstyle that is knotted at the top and shaved on both sides of the head.
crackle glaze bottom - obverse -reverse
Glaze crazing or glaze crackle is a network of lines or cracks in the fired glazed surface. It happens when a glaze is under tension. A craze pattern can develop immediately after removal from the kiln or years later.
Kanji
unknown- computer can,t break it
scene= dignitary versus servant ( see subservant position of the servant) and karako ( kid with minny mouse hair)
alledged time allocation EARLY TAISHO PERIOD ) i am not perfectly sure( i had some doubts about early 50 ties
Conclusion rather surprising A Gosu in combination with a thin lined moriage, normal wear and tear , not disturbing
i think this is better than average , but it remains low value , can,t help that almost every Japanese stuff is
regards Waki
Wow, thank you, knew I could rely on you - but surely, I am getting better ;) even if it has been a long slog !! Thank you, thank you :)
