Porcelain teapot and sugar container. The teapot features a finely profiled handle, lid, and spout. On both vessels, against a white background of the belly, two figurative representations stand out. One scene depicts three men on a grassy surface, with outlines of mountains in the distance. One of them likely carries a bonsai. The other scene also shows three men: one seated among cushions, while the other two approach him. The clothing is intricately adorned, and the scenes are divided by two bands of red-gold ornamentation.
Along the neck and edge of the teapot’s lid, there is a narrow band of hatched red and green triangles and semicircles. The lid of the sugar container is missing, although it was likely identical to the teapot’s lid.
This is the so-called Japanese eggshell porcelain. There are no manufacturer’s marks on the items, but it is possible that is the same manufacturer of Satsuma that produced the vase KB-370, as it features parts crafted in enamel.
