Ewer (Suichu)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Ewer (Suichu) by Kiyomizu, a ceramic vessel with a green and beige glaze, features a handle on one side and a spout on the other. The body of the ewer is rounded with a circular base and straight sides. A series of horizontal lines encircle the top portion. The handle is attached near the top and has a circular shape. The spout protrudes from the lower part of the vessel. The glaze is predominantly green with beige accents. Black accents are visible on the handle and around the opening at the top. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
