Height 54.7 cm, mouth diameter 29.5 cm, body diameter 46.7-48.0 cm, bottom diameter 17.0 cm
 The mouth rim is not folded back, but is twisted one step upward to form a broad rim band. This is a characteristic of Iga and Shigaraki wives. The shape of the body is similar to that of an arithmetic slab with a sloping shoulder,
It is thought to have been made in the mid-14th century. It is fired to a brownish-brown color, and the natural glaze on the shoulder has the appearance of white sesame sprinkles, which is also characteristic of Iga wares. There is a geta mark on the bottom.
