Description

A single wide, open bowl with a rounded body and a slightly thickened rim, shown in side view against a pale background. Its surface is dark grey-brown with mottled lighter patches. Breaks along the far inner wall leave light-coloured gaps, thin wire-like supports show under the base, and a number label appears in the lower right corner.

Description, scan 2
A single wide, shallow bowl with a dark, mottled surface, seen from the side and slightly above. Several irregular holes and small cracks have broken the upper wall near the rim, letting light show through. The bowl rests on a thin wire stand against a pale cloth backdrop, and the stand's legs are visible below.
