Large spouted glazed bowl, reconstructed from 18 fragments; perhaps two lacking completion; above ring base a concave groove and two decorative ridges from which bowl flares gracefully outwards to a point just below spout, then bends very slightly inward to curved lip which flattens on top. Opposited spout are stubs of the missing handle; spout short and semi-circular in profile; surface badly cracked and mutiliated; glaze appears to have been pale green faded white.
