Raku fired bowl (A) with lid (B). Bowl and lid appear to thrown on a wheel and sculpted handles have been added. One handle on the bowl is in the shape of a human figure; the other is in the shape of an animal's body (dog? wolf?) with a tail. Lid has a vertical projection like a stem coming from top at one side. Sculpted handle on lid consists of a mammal's (dog? wolf?) head who's mouth is wrapped around the stem. Once lid is on bowl the animal's head matches up to its body.
