 This is another onioke-style ware, but in the so-called “Suribon mizusashi” style, in the shape of a shaking bowl. The brown ash glaze is applied on one side, and the clay is reddish brown. It has an inscription of “Roku” (six) on the bottom, suggesting that it was probably made around the Momoyama period.
