　This is an early type of water pouring vessel with a receiving mouth, but it has a slightly more advanced form with a longer body and an elevated base. The shoulder is decorated with two stripes of chinkansen with a chrysanthemum design in the shape of a small chrysanthemum on the left and right sides. The ash glaze is brushed with a thin layer of ash, giving it a yellowish green color. This is a fine example of an early Inka design water pouring vessel.
