Old ki-Seto tea bowl

[Fuuten]

Hi all, 

 

I posted this bowl's box lid in the translation section for help and was actually given the name of the maker by one of kind folks here (for which thanks again!).

 

I've had this one for a while and while the box is in pretty rough shape the bowl is undamaged and shows it's age though I might be able to give it a rubbing. Hand formed as opposed to wheelthrown. I learned the signature states his age was 60 when he made it, so 1894 or thereabouts. Before I thought it was perhaps something by Rengetsu but never really looked into it further until a couple days ago.

Dear Morita san, domo!

 

If someone is looking for a challenge I have added 4 photos of the outside carving in the translation topic (link in the opening post).

I think Axel means that you can find clear photos of the Waka near the bottom of this thread:

 Dear Morita, please see the photo's in my last post click here

I've tried to make clear photos of the poem! If any part is unclear I will add new photos of parts needed. I'm quite curious.

Thank you Piers. Yes that is what I meant, apologies if it was unclear Morita san.

 

But I didn't want to make this a duplicate topic. Please see links above
