 This vessel is similar to the previous one in the composition of the peony design filling the entire surface, but the shape of this vessel is also unique, and it is molded slightly thicker with a twisted flower-style design on the prospective surface. The entire surface of the reverse side is covered with overglaze enamels of various patterns, also unparalleled. In the center of the stand, the inscription “Kakufuku” is written in black and covered with green overglaze enamel.
