Description

A shallow, rounded hand-made pottery bowl with a single horizontal handle projecting to the left, photographed in side view on a plain pale surface. The rim is level and the walls curve down to a rounded base. The surface is grey-brown, mottled and worn in places, and the bowl casts a soft shadow onto the ground beneath it.
