 This is a deep pot in the shape of a shoe with a stepped mouth, decorated with spotted patterns on three sides around the mouth and with flowers and grasses, a snake basket, and a circle pattern on the body. The glaze was applied thinly over the entire surface, which may have caused the clay to burn red, giving it a unique glazed surface. The base is extremely low, and the inside of the base is rounded off in small pieces. It is a bowl with a sharply shaped body similar to a Shino pot. It is assumed to have been made by the Tani Kiln of the jar shop.
