Small lobed, oval bowl, reddish earthenware body, lead glazes, ochre, red, and yellow. Moulded decoration consists of raised herringbone ridges between each lobe and two branches of herringbone pattern pine cones enclosing a central rosette within lobes. The base is decorated with cross-hatching containing a bead within each square. The shape derives from T'ang Chinese silver prototypes.
