Description

A heavily corroded metal object with a shallow, bowl-like form, its rim broken away on the upper left. The surface is crusted and flaking, with cracks and a rough, pitted texture, and the inner floor is partly covered by a thick deposit. It lies on a plain pale grey background, and a number label is printed in the lower right corner of the card.
