Height 29.7 cm, mouth diameter 8.7 cm x 11.5 cm, bottom diameter 12.0 cm
 This cylindrical vase, similar in shape to those of Ko-Iga and Mino-Iga vases, is also made by tapping. The bottom of the vase is almost circular, but it is flattened and distorted from the base to the mouth. The body has a three-tiered thick cord, with deeply carved ears on each side and carved patterns on each tier.
The black glaze is applied haphazardly, and the clay surface is burnished red. It is thought to have been made by the Tani Kiln of the jar shop.
