Height 3.8 cm, mouth diameter 20.7 x 24.1 cm, bottom diameter 13.3 x 16.4 cm
 This dish is exactly the same type as the previous one, but this dish has a military shape. The bottom half of the dish is decorated with a bush fence in underglaze blue, on which delicate brushwork depicts the tips of branches of a bush. The technique of underglaze blue is extremely outstanding, and the influence of Nabeshima, which produced highly finished underglaze blue pieces from around the Enpo period, can be seen in the design. The handle shows a cloisonne design, and the reverse side is covered with the same grass pattern in arabesque style as in the previous painting. It is assumed to have been made by the same artist at the same time.
