Description | Round bottom; insloping side. Painted. Tri-colored red-black-white. Bowl with a globular body, no neck/collar, rounded rim, no handles, and a rounded base. No molded/modeled additions. The vessel is painted with a geometric design in orange, black, and white. 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. The catalogue number is written on the bottom of the base. No other numbers are visible on the object. |
