Height 8.8cm, mouth diameter 10.6cm, base diameter 4.8cm
　This tea bowl is similar to “Nissho”, but this one is tighter. It is also thrown on the potter’s wheel a little thickly, and the rounded mouth structure is gently undulating. The body has a wheel-thrown surface, the waist is unusually rounded and raised, and the base is low and straight. The highlight of this bowl is the thick spatula carving diagonally on the waist with a wooden spatula. It is covered with a moist black glaze, and some of the glaze is peeling off, and there are marks on the rim where it was pulled out from the kiln. The back of the lid of the box is inscribed “Seto Black Ariake” by Naosai Kankyuan, which indicates that this tea bowl was handed down to the Hirase family in Osaka.
