This is a wheel-thrown vase made of cord clay. The side rim has noticeable wheel-thrown folds, and the workmanship is worse than the previous two vases. The edge of the mouth protrudes slightly outward, and the top has a wide rim band with an inward inclination. The bottom has a still thread cut. A part of the mouth rim is bent down to form a single mouthpiece, but the degree of protrusion is small. This may indicate its newness. The inner surface is densely grated using a wide comb with eight teeth. This work is representative of the early Muromachi period.
