Height 14.9 cm, mouth diameter 17.5 cm, bottom diameter 15.9 cm
The shape of this piece is very similar to that of a Korean dangjin suijin. It is also unusual in that it has traces of shells on three sides of the bottom. The wide mouth is tightened at the hem of the body in a nock-box style, and the bottom is made in a rounded seat style. The glaze is glazed from the mouth to the body, but the glaze is interestingly dripping and the glazed surface is glossy. On the bottom, the ninth generation of Omotesenke Ryōrōsai wrote “KOKESHIMISUZA (hanasei)” in direct red lacquer ink. This is another excellent Tamba-yaki water jar, probably made in the early Edo period. This is one of the best examples of Tamba ware water jars, probably related to the construction of climbing kilns.
