Description

  The present invention relates to a toilet bowl provided with a toilet bowl body made of earthenware.

Conventionally, as a toilet bowl provided with a toilet bowl made of pottery, one having a cover for concealing the rear of the toilet bowl body is known.
Usually, in the case of the toilet bowl made of pottery, there is a need to provide a gap between the front end of the cover and the toilet bowl main body because of variations in dimensions due to manufacturing errors. There is a concern that the gap between them will be large and it will take time to clean up and the appearance will be worse.
