Chawan Tea

Would this be correctly called a Raku Ware Chawan?

It's an object called a "Chawan (tea bowl) of Raku ware".
In a report, if i'm describing it, would it be correct to say "The object is a Raku ware Chawan from the late 18th - early 19th century"
"Chawan" is just japanese for "tea bowl" and does not need to be capitalized.
I don't know the context of your report, but note that "Raku" denotes the type of glaze technique used during final firing, not the type of ceramic it is (earthenware).
