　The underglaze blue and black “fuki sumi” dish with a Shibagaki house design has a slightly warped mouth, while the underglaze blue and black “fuki sumi” dish with a house design is a round, straight plate. The underglaze blue and black “fubuki sumi” dish with a design of a house surrounded by bush fences and a rice planting design is a rural scene, or perhaps the artist intended to represent snow in fubuki sumi. The dish with a house motif in sumi ink and underglaze blue is a very elegant and profound design, with the house in white and dotted with trees in sumi ink, a small sun in the sky, and flying geese at the hem. This kind of design was not seen in Tenkei’s underglaze blue and white ceramics, and it can be said to be one of the Japanese-style designs that broke away from Tenkei’s style.
