 This is a large flat bowl with a tiered base. The inside of the circular window is covered with yellow glaze with a roughly drawn wave design and two rabbits facing straight ahead in the center of the window, covered with green glaze. The design of the rabbits with waves is similar to that of dyed textiles of the Kanbun period, and the surrounding area is covered with green glaze over a ground pattern of mokume, chrysanthemum, and Bishamonubishi, etc. On the reverse side, chrysanthemum arabesques are drawn in a spiral pattern in a spacious manner.
