The dramatic one of the painted family: where 2081 and 2082 dab, this cup gets swept — a large black ink-wash blob wraps around the body with pale-blue washes breaking through it like sky through storm, and a black band circles the lower body on the reverse. Black speckles drift across the glossy white ground; the whole thing is brushed decoration fired permanent. The base-up photo shows “2083” incised on the bare base.
How much of the cup is painted? Most of one hemisphere — the blob commits, wrapping farther than any single view can hold, which is why the listing takes five. Piece 2083 of 10,000, listed at $20.83.
