Description

A footed bowl with two strap handles at the sides stands on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop. Its body carries a large diamond-shaped panel of cross-hatching, flanked by vertical bands of lines and hatching, and a broad dark band runs around the body below the rim. A dark patch shows on the lower body above the stemmed foot, and the rim is slightly uneven.
