Presentation bowl
Text
Possibly part of a Betel service. The two-piece presentation bowl is part of a small number of cultural artifacts from the Philippines that José Rizal sent from his place of exile Dapitan (northwest coast of the island of Mindanao) to the Ethnographic Museum in Dresden in exchange for books. J. Rizal visited the Dresden Museum during his stay in Europe in 1886 and has been in professional contact with its founder and long-standing director AB Meyer ever since. At his request, J. Rizal had Zoologica and Ethnografica sent to Dresden from 1893 onwards via the chemist and explorer A. von Schadenberg, who lived in Manila. The last shipment of Rizal items arrived in Dresden on January 21, 1896. (PM, 2022). Tab matched (MVD, Katrin Bielmeier, 08.12.2017)

Sensitive Content
Mapping Philippine Material Culture collates digital material from institutions, and some of this material is inherently colonial and contains words, terms and phrases that are inaccurate, derogatory and harmful towards Filipino and Filipino diasporic communities. Catalogue transcriptions, book titles, exhibition titles and museum titles may contain harmful terms. We recognise the potential for the material to cause physical and mental distress as well as evoke strong emotions. Owing to the scale of the collection’s data, a process to implement sensitive-content warnings in the displayed data is still incomplete. The material within the catalogue does not represent Mapping Philippine Material Culture’s views. Mapping Philippine Material Culture maintains a strong anti-colonial, anti-racist position and affirms its support for centring the humanity of historically marginalised and disenfranchised communities.
