Raku Dôraku (dates unknown)

Red Raku low cylindrical tea bowl named “Hirosawa”, ex-collection of the Raku family

Dôraku is Dônyû's brother but is not counted as one of the Raku generations.
His style basically follows the Raku tradition. His tea bowls are large and regular, stylistically similar to Dônyû's work.
