Across the second reserve gap, the run’s most decorated bowl. A deep, conical stoneware form — coarse and grogged, its buff-grey outer wall carrying dark patches and embedded grit — opens to a pale interior brushed at the center with a bold black cross of strokes, a gate-mark echoing the one on cup 2184. The brushwork sits inside rather than out. Because 2198 has no page, the Previous link is left open. The base carries “2199” handwritten.
A mark inside the bowl? A bold black gate of brushed strokes laid in the well, the same figure as 2184’s cup — the only interior brushwork of the closing bowls. Piece 2199 of 10,000, listed at $21.99.
