Description | Longitudinally the bowl and handle follow a smooth curve, but a few handles curve sharply. The hollows of all bowls extend into the handles, but some terminate before reaching the ends. Most of the handles taper; none are pierced. The bowls vary in proportionate width. The side edges of the bowls sometimes are differentiated abruptly from the handles; sometimes the curve continues. |
