Height 20.6 cm, mouth diameter 14.4-15.0 cm, body diameter 21.9 cm, bottom diameter 19.4 x 20.0 cm
 This is a similar style to the “broken pouch water jar” in the collection of the Gotoh Museum of Art, with a thickly molded body and small ears on the shoulders. The body has a five-tiered rutted ridge with a small ear on the shoulder, and as usual, the hem is bag-shaped. The front is covered with a light green beadlo glaze with ash falling from the mouth to the front, and the back is burnished red. The body is covered with a single spatula with a mountain-way shape. There are several large cracks on the bottom, which are typical of this type of jug. The bottom of the pot still has marks on three sides.
