Description | Pottery. Wide mouthed, collared and with everted lip; two lugs on collar. Round bottom. Painted with design of dependent frets. Wide mouthed vessel with a globular body, bulging collar, rounded rim, no handles, and a rounded base. No molded/modeled additions. The vessel is painted with a band of geometric design around the shoulder in white, black, and orange. There are two protrusions on the side of the collar and there is a painted dashed line around the rim 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. Fireclouding is present on the body. The catalogue number is written on the bottom of the base and black ink on the bottom of the base reads: "1527." |
