Description

The bowl stands on a low, flared ring foot, with a horizontal handle projecting from its left side. Dark painted bands run around the rim and below the upper wall, and between them vertical panels alternate cross-hatched fields with branching, fern-like motifs. Cracks run across the lower body, and the photograph is mounted on a card with a plain border.
