Japanese chawan bowls

Our museum has two what I think are chawan ceramic bowls.
One is light brown crazed glaze with green stain to simulate early production which I think is Hagi ware or Hiragata.
The other is a shihogata shape with blue enamel over flambe.
There is a museum in Japan called Hatakeyama museum in Tokyo (tea ceremony museum) but I cant find an email or inquiry contact if anyone can help that would be appreciated.
If anyone can guide the museum in the correct direction to identify correctly that would be great.

I'm a bit of a chawan collector but I'm not really sure with what you need help.

Hi Clare,

There is no email/contact option in the English part of the site, but there is in the Japanese part.

If I am correct this is Japanese and not Jun ware. The blue green chawan is what I think is shihogata shape, is this correct please? It has stickers on the base but not sure who may have made it or what kiln. The glaze has been dripped on and the ring left in the natural clay colour so one may admire its beauty before drinking Japanese tea. This was obtained 1943.Size not given but looks like 70mm high.
The beige bowl I am not sure whether it would be a tea bowl or a rice bowl. H-96mm W-173mm. We received it in 1961.
Any information would be appreciated as to confirming Japanese, who may have made it-eg kiln, confirm its shape/s, or if you know an email address of a museum who has a similar item that would be great.
