A type of Seto tea caddy. It is said to have marks on the clay glaze that look as if insects have eaten through the glaze. It is a rare tea caddy, and the clay is light red or even light yellow. However, there are insect-eaten marks in the clay and even inside the bottom. Because of the insect-eaten marks, itokiri (thread cutting) is faintly visible. The twist back of the mouth is good. The under glaze is a slightly blackish persimmon-colored glaze. The under glaze is a slightly blackish glaze of persimmon color, while the over glaze appears to be slightly high with many thin stripes of weeping glaze. However, the color of the nadare glaze is black, yellow, or candy-red. The nadare glaze changes in various ways within a single line, creating a gorgeous glaze composition. The inside of the nadare also bears traces of insect bites.
One of the most famous tea caddies from ancient times is the Mushizui Fujishiro tea caddy, which was handed down from the Marquis of Owari. It is believed to have been made in the Manchuko-gama kiln.
