Cup

The beaker is complete, with a crack in the wall. It is cylindrical in shape. Its wall is flared at the top, and its rim is flared. The wall curves at the base towards the sock, which is flat. The object rests on an annular foot, whose fulcrum is free of glaze. The underside of the base is recessed and flat; the decoration is hand-painted in polychrome of underglaze blue and overglaze red and gold, on the inner rim and base, and on the outer wall. The decoration is vegetal, in the Japanese Imari style. The inner rim is adorned with a wide blue-painted fillet with gilding highlights, partially faded. The inner background, encircled by a red-painted ring, consists of leafy stems painted blue and flowers outlined in red and painted orange and gold. The decoration on the outer wall is encircled by two blue-painted fillets; it features the same geometric and vegetal motif repeated three times, consisting of blue-painted leaves and scrolls, with a red-painted flower and motifs, all with gold highlights. The surface between these forms is adorned with blue-painted leaves, scrolls traced in red and flowers traced in red and painted in orange and gold. Two superimposed fillets run around the outside of the foot.
