Notes
The bowl is deep, with a rim that gradually expands outward, and rests on a high annular base. The surfaces are mainly glazed in white, with royal blue glass around the frame and the vertical side, and there are alternating sectors of royal blue and olive green on both the interior and exterior surfaces. The sectors on the inner surface taper in thickness towards the center of the bowl, making it noticeably thinner at the distal border. The lines converge at the central blue circle surrounding a blue dot surrounded by two irregular green lines, and the bottom of the short base is also glazed in white.
