Description

Physical Description:

A ceramic rounded bowl with a tall, trapered cylindrical stand with a lip. The base is detailed with staggered rectangular cut-outs that run from the lip to where the base meets the bowl.

This is a gray, low-fired stem cup that has a perforated, singletiered pedestal. The sides of the bowl curve upwards, and the rim has a sharp edge. The inner and outer surfaces of the cup show traces of rotation and water smoothing, while the base shows traces of clay attachments. The trumpet-shaped pedestal features three rectangular perforations.
