Sake bottle (tokkuri) with a pear-shaped body, no foot and a short cylindrical neck. A blue-white cover covers the entire external surface except for the base, which is characterised by a dark chamois background on which a spiral is impressed. The body features a yoraku motif, composed of thin crossed grains forming lozenges decorated with tassels and pendants. The net is interrupted by two lobed green reserves with kotubuki alternating with two other Chinese fan-shaped folders containing a stylised, clawless dragon. Chrysanthemum corollas and leaves appear on the neck on a blue background. This type is known as "Arita porcelain" or "Imari", with kakiemon decoration.
