This is a blue well that came from the Ikushima family in Osaka, with a calligraphy by Prince Sadaiai of Fushimi Palace. It has an inscription of Hayabusa, which is said to have been written by Prince Teiai of Fushimi Palace. It is a small bowl of the old well style, but it is thought to have been named after its sharp and sharp style. The line of the bowl is strong, and the sharply cut line on the side of the base is also strong, and the base which receives it also protrudes outward in the shape of a repellent, making it a very strong tea bowl.
The glaze is a slightly yellowish grassy color, and is not too thick nor too thin, showing pooling in some places. The sharp cutting on the side of the base must have caused deep creases, and the creases here are very distinct and appear as the cutting. The kairagi inside the high stand is slightly protruding, but the central helmet has a high raised width, creating a perfect view. The wheel-thrown lines on the prospective surface spiral down toward the bottom, and large eye marks are faintly visible within them. It is a very fresh and masculine tea bowl.
