DescriptionRound bulb pan raised on three applied zoomorphic feet with incised broken bands around the outside of the bowl. The bottom of the bowl is unglazed and the glaze has turned red where it has pulled away from the raised foot. The inside of the bowl is decorated with a flower (chrysanthemum) which is unglazed and also shows the same red color as the foot rim. The glaze which is heavily applied, is intended to be celadon in color but over-firing has turned it a tan-green.
