 This pottery seems to have been painted from the shoulder to the base, and is browned with a Hidasuki (scarlet tasuki) pattern from the mouth to the body. The neck is slightly distorted, but it is still one of the best examples of this type of sake cup. A kiln mark is engraved on the hem of the body, and there are traces of straw on the bottom.
