 This is the only water droplet from the Chita Ko-kiln, excavated from the Early Mountain Tea Bowl Kiln in the northern part of the Chita Peninsula. It is the only water droplet from the Chita Ko-kiln. It shares some similarities with Kosedo water droplets, but it is older in age and may be the origin of the Kosedo water droplets. It is made of coarse white clay and wheel-thrown. The body is decorated with two curved lines of dots in the autumn grass style.
