This is a short-necked jar with a slightly smaller mouth and neck than those in the Honda Collection. It is made of grayish-white, dense clay and wheel-thrown. The firing is very good, and there are some large blisters on the shoulder. This type of short-necked jar can be seen in the early Yamachawan period, and the condition and material of the bright green ash glaze on the shoulder suggests that it was made at the Sanage kiln.
