 This piece shows a geometric design unique to Nabeshima, with an Ajiro pattern on the entire surface. The shape of the vessel is firm, and it is estimated to have been made around the Genroku period (1688-1704). The reverse side is decorated with a cloisonne design and a comb-shaped raised platform.
