Photogrammetry: Kaga Kutani 加賀九谷 Cup - Likely Showa Period (1926-1989)

I had found two of these cups at a second-hand store, and the golden dots and birds really captivated me. So, I bought them and scanned one in the KIRI engine photogrammetry phone app.

I went to research what kind of cup this was, and found that this has a pattern used on Kutani porcelain called "1000 cranes." Based on the manufacturer's mark collection from Lita Xú Líng Kelley [here](http://litaxulingkelley.blogspot.com/p/japanese-porcelain-marks.html), it matches the Kaga Kutani (加賀九谷) manufacturer marking, of which it was likely produced in Kaga Han (Kanazawa).

My process was to scan the cup twice, as KIRI engine has trouble when an object is rotated or flipped over in the same imageset. So I scanned the botton, and the sides. The inside did not play nice, so I manually took a photo straight down and applied that photo data to the UV myself. The final texture is a combination of data from both high-poly to low-poly bakes.
