While the piece shown here is not entirely typical of Oribe pieces, the black glaze, contrast window, and unmistakable kutsugata shape all point to this genre of Minō pottery...

Some scholars therefore believe that the Mishima for which the pottery is named is derived from an island off the coast of Yamaguchi call...
