 This piece is also designated as an Important Art Object. It is almost the same as the previous example, with the same arrangement of patterns on the sides and the same design on the back. The inside has diamond-shaped windows on all five sides, with a fish design inside. In the center is a peach tree with two birds, rocks, and bamboo grass in the style of the Kano school, a noble composition for this type of Koya ware. A variant of the Kakufuku inscription is inscribed in black on the base, and the top of the inscription is covered in dark blue.
