Oribe furidashi pot with handles

Oribe furidashi pot with handles

 These pieces are used today as furisode among tea masters, but it is not clear whether they were originally made for oil or for oil quantity. Figure 132 has a Kagome pattern on the reverse side and an interesting painting on the front side, which could be a flower or a bird. The flat bottom of Fig. 132 still shows the traces of thread cutting. Figure 133 has a looped linkage pattern on the body, and the flat bottom is also cut with a thread cutter. Figure 134 has a line engraving with a scraped off glaze and a wavy pattern on the bottom. It is fired to a brownish-brown glaze commonly known as kaki-oribe.
