　This form, with a short neck that immediately turns outward from the shoulder, is related to a sutra jar excavated from a sutra mound on the hill behind Nishiji Temple, and may be considered as a small jar form. The bottom of the jar was made to a certain height by clay stringing and then grafted on to the top, a molding technique unique to Suzu.
