 This is a so-called “senjan bottle” with a thin and tall body and a spout and a handle. However, there might have been a real sake cup because Yeokawa imitated it. The body is decorated with a lively design of flying phoenixes and chrysanthemums, and the spout and handles are decorated with small flowers. The base is thick, and the bottom is covered with clay.
