Finely potted with fluted sides flaring from a small recessed foot, the interior similarly impressed with fluted petals, covered overall with a lustrous beige glaze suffused with dense iron-black crackles, the glaze thinning to mushroom color on the rim, the foot unglazed revealing the dark brown body, 3.5 in wide. Provenance: From the estate of Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Piccus, Hampton, Virginia.
