Description

A large, shallow bowl with a rounded body and wide open mouth, photographed in three-quarter view on a plain light surface. Its surface is pale and crusty with patches of encrustation and darker deposits, and the rim is rough and uneven. An irregular hole is broken through the inner wall, and handwritten notes and a printed label run along the lower edge of the print.
