Pot

Globular body. Flattened at base. Grooved at the base of concave neck. Painted with frogs, in red-black-white.

Wide mouthed vessel with a globular body, hyperboloid collar, rounded rim, no handles, and a flat base. No molded/modeled additions. The vessel is painted with a band of geometric "frog" designs around the shoulder in white, black, red, and purple. There is another band of geometric design on the neck in white and black. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior and a smoothed finish on the interior. The vessel was likely fired in an oxidizing atmosphere as the ceramic paste is orange in color. There are striations on the interior surface from smoothing tool. The catalogue number is written on the bottom of the base and black ink on the bottom of the base reads: "1828."
