223 - An old blue-and-white porcelain fresh water jar with floral pattern A mizusashi (fresh-water jar for the tea ceremony) painted with a floral design in the soft, distinctive tones of kosometsuke ware. The piece possesses the rich, evocative keshiki (visual character) unique to kosometsuke — a quality born of the interaction between the slightly rough clay body, the freely painted decoration and the unpredictable behaviour of the glaze. With a crack (nyū). H: 13cm D: 17cm A pattern of fine crazing is visible. Wooden box China, Ming Dynasty
