central figure of Amitabha, seated, Dhyani mudra holding Patra. At top left hand corner is Akshobhya (Mi-Bskyod-Ra) in Bhumisparsa mudra and holding a dorje in left hand. Below him is the Green Tara, Amitayus and Manjusri (Jam-Pal-Dbyangs) consecutively. Next to Manjusri is the 4-armed Avalokitesvara (Spyan-Ras-Gzios Phyag-Bzhi-Pa) (Chenrezig Chagzhipa). Top centre is unclear, as figure is damaged. Probably Vairocana (Rnam-Par Snang-Mdzab), with Bodhisattva ornaments. This is the celestial or Longs-sku form of the Dhyani Budhha. At top right corner is the white Bodhisattva, left hand holding Ghanta or bell. In this position and with this attribute probably Vajrasattva, a form of the Primordial Buddha. Right hand would have held a Dorje. Below him is the White Tara, Sitatara. At bottom right corner is Vajrapani (Phyag-Rdor Sems-Pahi Cha-Lugs Can). Original cover and hanging tabs still attached, with brass and wooden poles attached on the top and bottom.

central figure of Amitabha, seated, Dhyani mudra holding Patra. At top left hand corner is Akshobhya (Mi-Bskyod-Ra) in Bhumisparsa mudra and holding a dorje in left hand. Below him is the Green Tara, Amitayus and Manjusri (Jam-Pal-Dbyangs) consecutively. Next to Manjusri is the 4-armed Avalokitesvara (Spyan-Ras-Gzios Phyag-Bzhi-Pa) (Chenrezig Chagzhipa). Top centre is unclear, as figure is damaged. Probably Vairocana (Rnam-Par Snang-Mdzab), with Bodhisattva ornaments. This is the celestial or Longs-sku form of the Dhyani Budhha. At top right corner is the white Bodhisattva, left hand holding Ghanta or bell. In this position and with this attribute probably Vajrasattva, a form of the Primordial Buddha. Right hand would have held a Dorje. Below him is the White Tara, Sitatara. At bottom right corner is Vajrapani (Phyag-Rdor Sems-Pahi Cha-Lugs Can). Original cover and hanging tabs still attached, with brass and wooden poles attached on the top and bottom.

Madara-kin shino ware tea ceremony bowl. Irregular circular bowl with thick walls and a shallow circular foot. The outside wall has an impressed design on the side, possibly a representation of a Japanese character, or the markers mark. The bowl is covered outside and inside with a metallic orange glaze with a pearlescent sheen and dark silvery patches. The outside base and foot are unglazed, showing pale brown shading to orange body. On the base is a small repeat of the design on the side, a single horizontal stroke with three small vertical strokes rising from it._x000D__x000D_ Accompanying the bowl are a hemmed square of dark purple ribbed satin, a larger oblong unhemmed piece of woven orange textile with a seal stamped in red ink in one corner, and a wooden presentation box. The dark purple fabric is in a small square box of white card with a circular hole cut out of the centre of the base. The lid is printed in green with 4 lines of white circular family crests (mon) and a line of black Japanese characters._x000D__x000D_ The unvarnished plain wooden box has a removable unhinged lid with three lines of Japanese characters in black ink, one with a seal in red ink below. This seal is the same as the one on the orange textile. The base of the box is also plain unvarnished wood but it has slits in the bottom edges through which is threaded a woven ribbon in with a central band on yellow gold colour bordered by thin black and white stripes at right angles to the central band. The ends of the ribbon are bound with white thread into tassels and the ribbon is tied into a bow._x000D__x000D_ Also with the bowl was a white envelope containing a small folded piece of white paper printed in Japanese in black ink, two long thin postcards showing colour montages of tea bowls and folded leaflet in Japanese with images of ceramics and of what may be the 2000 cranes studio.
