Height 4.4 cm, mouth diameter 23.9 cm, four legs
 This is another four-sided corner-cut bowl. This type of bowl is based on the then-popular lacquer ware “ori-shiki” style. The surface is roughly decorated with a landscape design in brush strokes, and although there are only a few examples of this type of bowl, many of them seem to have been made in the Motoyashiki period. The bottom of the bowl has legs on all four sides, and the glaze applied to the entire body shows a faint reddish tinge. Seven round marks remain, mainly on the legs.
 Two lines are around the outside of the bowl.
