Height 27.8 cm, mouth diameter 12.3 cm, body diameter 19.4 cm, bottom diameter 12.5 cm
 This is the same type of jar as Figure 26, but the rough tortoiseshell design on this piece covers almost the entire surface of the body, and it is a gorgeous piece that shows the decorative qualities unique to the Ko-kutani style.
 The outer frame of the tortoiseshell motif is yellow, the inner frame is green and red, or dark blue and red, and the center is purple with a crane circle design, which is an excellent color scheme. The mouth and shoulders, and the hem of the body to the base are covered with a single yellow band, which makes the tortoiseshell design stand out even more.
