　This is a rare example of a Shigaraki ware from Iga and Shigaraki. It is made of clay with high iron content, and the surface of the vessel is adjusted with a horizontal comb. Three Koseto-style horizontal “mimi” (ears) are affixed to the shoulder, and a four-lobed rhombus inscription is stamped on both sides. There is a geta mark on the underside of the bottom. It was probably made under the influence of Kosedo. The ware is not very hard.
