Height 10.2cm, mouth diameter 10.7cm, base diameter 4.8cm
 This is a cylindrical tea bowl with the appearance of a Raku ware tea bowl, with a rounded waist, a slightly inward holding mouth, and a small high stand. One side of the body is covered with a thin layer of ash glaze, and the interior is also covered with ash glaze. The clay surface has an austere reddish color.
On the back of the lid of the box, Kakuyusai Haraso inscribed “Shikaraki chawan inscribed Kankai left (hanaoshi),” but it was probably not made during the Kakuyusai period.
