  <h2>What we can see</h2>
  <p class="note">Drawn only from your photographs and your own notes. Nothing here is inferred, and no one in your photographs has been identified.</p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>The Sunday cups.</strong> The owner describes a tea set with cobalt vine decoration on white. According to the owner's notes, these cups were kept for Sundays and brought out only for people she loved. The owner refers to the set as belonging to a grandmother.</li>
  </ul>

  <h2>The story</h2>
  <p class="note">This part is written. It is prose about the facts above — not more facts.</p>
  <div class="prose"><p>Cobalt vines on white. A tea set kept for Sundays, brought out only for people she loved. That was the rule, and the rule said everything.</p>
  <p>It belonged to a grandmother. What else is known fits inside a sentence: certain cups were set aside for certain people, and Sunday was when that distinction was made visible.</p></div>

  <h2>What we do not know</h2>
  <p class="note">We did not fill these in. Only you can.</p>
  <ul class="unknown">
    <li>No photographs were provided, so nothing about the physical appearance of the tea set can be confirmed beyond what the owner's notes describe.</li>
    <li>The notes do not say where the tea set is now, or whether it still exists.</li>
    <li>The notes do not say how many pieces the set includes.</li>
    <li>The notes do not give a date or time period for when the set was used.</li>
    <li>The notes do not say who 'she' is beyond the owner's title reference to a grandmother — no name, no further detail is given.</li>
    <li>It is not clear from the notes whether the owner witnessed the set being used, inherited it, or is recalling it from memory alone.</li>
    <li>The notes do not say where the grandmother lived or where the Sunday gatherings took place.</li>
  </ul>

The Tribunal's report

Every artifact above was graded against the published Occestra Quality Standard — the full report ships with the pack, pass or fail. Read the standard.

keepsake_artpassfull report
compositionlegibilitystyle fidelitysubject fidelityplatform fitdefects
  • CONTRAST_LOWA generated png carries no lettering (Occestra never renders type into imagery), so there is no contrast to measure.
  • DIM_ASPECT_MISMATCHRendered at the requested 1024x1024.
  • FILE_TOO_LARGE2112 KB — comfortable to share.
  • PALETTE_DRIFTColours sit on the porcelain_garden palette (mean distance 13.7).
  • POLICY_VIOLATIONFinal copy is clean.
  • SCHEMA_INVALIDArtifact and payload satisfy their schemas.

The critic's notes

  • · The rendering reads more as pencil/chalk sketch than glazed porcelain brushwork — the cobalt lacks the characteristic pooled-pigment bleed and wet-glaze softness of Delft/qinghua tradition; it looks drawn rather than painted onto a fired surface
  • · The silhouetted figure in the background, while evocative, introduces a narrative element not present in the brief and pulls the eye away from the tea set as the primary subject
  • · The scrolling border is stronger at the corners and top than at the bottom, creating slight asymmetry in the framing weight
  • · The background scene (window, curtain, figure) adds tonal complexity that competes with the calm white space the House Style calls for between motifs — the interior scene reads as a vignette rather than a porcelain-tradition composition
  • · No crackle-glaze texture or sheen of fired porcelain surface is present; the ground reads as paper rather than warm glazed white

The critic's notes

  • · The page background is set to --ground:#6E93C4 (a mid cobalt blue), which inverts the house style's fundamental instruction: the ground must be warm porcelain white (#F7F5EF or #EDF1F5) with cobalt as the ink/accent colour. As rendered, the page reads as a blue field with white text — the opposite of the Porcelain Garden palette logic and the 'warm white glaze' specification.
  • · The border-top separator on h2 uses rgba(0,0,0,.12), a near-black tint. The palette permits only the blue/white family; no black or neutral tint is specified. On the blue ground this is invisible anyway, but it violates the palette constraint.
  • · The h1 is set in ui-serif/Georgia — a reasonable fallback — but the house style calls for 'a fine transitional serif with delicate hairlines.' Georgia is a slab-transitional with heavy serifs, not a hairline face. No web font or @font-face is loaded to satisfy the hairline requirement; the spec is unmet.
  • · The 'date not recorded' line is functional and honest, but it sits in the same quiet sans as the section labels, making it visually indistinguishable from metadata. A small typographic distinction (e.g. italic, or the serif body face) would help the reader parse it as content rather than UI chrome.
  • · CONTRAST_LOW: Body text does not clear the 4.5:1 legibility floor.
