Photograph

Clay gray buff, with somewhat greenish tone from numerous small red particles. gritty. Light smooth flaky pink slip over all (?) surfaces. Preserved is frag. of wall and rim. Flaring wall curves with rather marked transition into straight tapering rim. Lip plain, slightly everted interiorly. All surfaces covered with exception of rim area outside. This too probably was covered as there are traces of paint on it but has in general been so evenly abraded of paint that it appears reserved. This no well as color of Wheel made ?
