| Description | Section of base & lower wall of stand (?). It seems best to consider this part of a stand rather than the rim and wall of a dish because the interior is unglazed. Broad resting surface, quite flat. Lower wall constricts rapidly in diameter upward. Glaze largely fugitive on wall. There remain glazed tongues, tips down, with solid centers and linear outlines. Brownish buff clay. |
