 This is an Ichiban-style tatemizu with a low-rising mouth and a beautifully rounded, richly puffed out body. It is not clear whether or not it was created as a tatemizu, but it is likely to be of excellent workmanship. The bottom is probably flat with a Hidasuki. This kind of tatemizu is generally called a hearse.
