 A square-shaped sake bottle with a stroked shoulder. It has a small mouth with a twisted rim in the style of a tama-rim. The body is painted with a rose-like pattern on one side and two birds on the other. Although the date of production is not clear, it is assumed to have been made after the Kanbun period. It is probably a special-order item. A slightly smaller version similar to this one is still in existence.
