 The oral part is rather long, and the upper half of the body has a projecting band at the end, which, together with the elongated shape, is considered to be an element from a slightly later period. It is made of grayish-white, rather rough clay, and is water-molded with a geta mark on the bottom. The design has eye patterns on the shoulders and grass patterns using a single applied tool over the entire surface of the vessel.
 The ash glaze is evenly applied and has a bright light green color.
