Wan-nari type tea bowl wan-nari chawan, Stoneware bowl on a low, round foot; rough surface; partly glazed with white milky and grey-bluish glaze with numerous spots and drips, with gold lacquer veins. Fillings and gluing made with gold lacquer. Edo period, 18th–19th century, Japan. Function: tea vessel chawan. Height 8.4 cm; diameter 13.5 cm., A weathered ceramic bowl sits against a plain grey background, showing a rough, uneven surface with visible cracks and repairs filled with a metallic gold material. The exterior displays a mottled palette of beige, brown, cream, and muted green with streaks and speckles, while the interior reveals similar tones of pale green, beige, and brown with darker brown lines following the repaired fractures.
