Description

A round-bodied bowl with a wide, slightly flaring mouth, standing on a plain surface against a pale backdrop. Dark painted bands run around the shoulder and body, with groups of vertical strokes and a pendant hourglass-like motif between them. A diagonal crack runs down the side, and a small paper number label is attached to the left of the base.
