WAZA, ceramics, lacquer, Japan, 19th century

The cover is topped with a pinnacle. An interesting decorative program in the type of horror vacui. Most of the vessel was covered with lacquer. On the belly, there are two large fields with birds, surrounded by trees, one on a black, the other on a red background. The space between the fields is filled with variations on the mesh theme, with "windows" showing cobalt underglaze decorations. The decoration of the lid has been solved in the same way.
