Height 21.4 cm, mouth diameter 17.2 x l9.9 cm, body diameter 26.5 cm, bottom diameter 20.5 cm
 This is probably the tallest and largest of the Bizen water jars. The robust mouth has a nock-shaped mouth with ears on both sides of the upper part of the body and strong spatula carvings on the upper and lower parts of the body. The bottom is probably flat. Ashes fall from the mouth to one side of the body, the entire body is hardened and the clay skin is slightly dry. The flat bottom has a thin semicircular mark with a kiln mark engraved on it. There are also two large corner marks on the omits, but the marks are not well marked and are not clear. This is a very powerful suiji (water jar).
