Description

A shallow dish with a single loop handle at the left, photographed from above on a grey backdrop. The vessel is pieced together from several fragments, with pale gaps and cracks across the surface and dark glaze on the rim. Inside the broad central panel are dark painted motifs: a chair-like frame at upper right, a pillar with a scroll ornament at left and a fan-shaped shape at lower left.
