resting on a flat foot encircled by a deftly pared shallow concave band slightly angled out to meet the gently rounded base of the very slightly flaring flat sides rising to a thick narrow band around the exterior of the very slightly rolled-out mouth, the flat floor on the interior with incised line border, covered with a lustrous glaze of ivory tone all over, only the edge of the rim unglazed exposing the fine white body unevenly burnt pale pinkish tan in the firing.
