Height 5.3 cm, mouth diameter 7.6 x 12.5 cm, bottom diameter 6.2 cm.
 The mouth of this potter’s wheel was thrown rather thinly, and the body was tightened with a shoestring shape. The waist is rounded and the base is straight. The inside and outside are coated with a sesame glaze, and the lacquered clay surface is smooth and dark brown in color. The body is attached on three sides, and a kiln mark is carved in the base. It may be a little smaller than other Kutsu-shape teacups of this type, but it is an excellent teacup with excellent workmanship.
