Sake Cup with Pattern Resembling Ikat-Dyed Fabric (Kasuri)
White ceramic bowl with a wide mouth and a short foot. The bowl has black abstract brushstroke-like designs around its body. The background of the image is gray, with a shadow cast by the bowl. The overall appearance suggests a traditional or handmade piece, possibly inspired by Kasuri, a Japanese technique of resist dyeing fabric.
