 These pieces are also presumed to be old pots from the Minamigawara period. The reverse side of each piece is characterized by a plain white surface, and most of the surface is covered with different colored glazes to create a nuritame or cast ground, but the design is similar to that of the piece shown in Figure 73, with a Dingzi-hana junction pattern in white on a brocade glazed ground and green and purple paint on the leaves and flowers. However, these pieces do not have the underglaze blue underglaze blue inscriptions that are characteristic of Nabeshima domain kilns, but they are thought to be early examples of the Ko-Nabeshima style.
