Height 3.4 cm, mouth diameter 15.3 x 12.4 cm, base diameter 8.9 x 7.4 cm
 This diamond-shaped dish has a rhombus-shaped mouth rim and a rounded base. The base is also in the shape of a diamond with a rounded rhombus. The blue of the running water is also painted in overglaze blue, which is unique for Nabeshima. The entire surface of the back is decorated with peony arabesques, and the base is covered with comb patterns. It is regrettable that the large amount of gold repair work has been done.
