Description
    "White ground" (jishiro 地白), possibly multipart, "main stencil" (omogata 主型). Irikobishi 入子菱 (nested rhombi). Seigaiha 青海波 („blue ocean waves): a pattern that can be found in many regions of the world. In Japan it can be found on Haniwa robes from the Kofun period (approx. 300-538). But only since the Kamakura period (1185-1333) has the pattern been associated with water (e.g. Koseto jugs). The name seigaiha 青海波is said to go back to a title of a Gagaku dance.
