هذا الكوتو نوع من آلات القانون، وهو يُمثّل براعة عالية في مجال الفنون الزخرفية والموسيقية اليابانية. وتأسست القواعد الرئيسية لموسيقى الكوتو اليابانية خلال القرن السابع عشر الميلادي رغم وجود أعراف عريقة قبل ذلك العصر. وتُوثّق هذه الآلة هذا التطوّر الموسيقيّ المهم بتطعيمها الفاخر زخرفها البديع الذي أنجزه تايجو، أستاذ الجيل التاسع وربما الأكثر مهارة من بين أفراد عائلة غوتو من فناني القطع المعدنية. كما يعكس الكوتو المركز الاجتماعي لمالكه (عشيرة كراسومارو القوية) والدور الذي أدّاه الكوتو نفسه كرمز لليابان. يعود الصندوق المدروس بدقة والمطلي باللكّ إلى بدايات القرن التاسع عشر الميلادي، وقد زُخرف بجماجم ذهبية (شعار عائلة كراسومارو) وبإوز.
