I immediately fell in love with the remnants of painted decoration on it, which, as positioned in my first photo, suggests an excellent skull-and-crossbones sort of mask at center. (Or perhaps a cat with a very pointy chin!) And then a triangle pointing to the rim, with what looks a bit like a figure in silhouette inside it, arms pointing on the diagonal.) A rorschach test of a bowl, whatever the case! And just gorgeous color between the cream of the decoration and red of the clay, burnished on the exterior. Purchased from a favorite shop-treasure trove in NH. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 1\/8\" in diameter x 1 3\/4\" deep and in beautifully aged condition, surface wear but no significant chips or cracks, and a wonderful slightly irregular form to the bowl when viewed from the side, making the hand of its maker feel all the more present. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"critical EYE Finds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54835649216796,"sku":"hyg1793852441093","price":71.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/0874\/1916\/files\/pre-columbian-clay-bowl-with-skull-and-crossbones-like-paint-remnants_1.jpg?v=1793852448","url":"https:\/\/luxmodshop.shop\/products\/pre-columbian-clay-bowl-with-skull-and-crossbones-like-paint-remnants","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
