Cleveland Museum of Art

Brown ceramic bowl with a wide mouth and a narrow base. The bowl has a dark brown and black glaze that is chipped and worn in several places, revealing the underlying brown clay. The rim of the bowl is uneven and rough. The bowl's body is rounded and asymmetrical. The background is dark at the top and lightens towards the bottom. The bowl casts a shadow on the surface it's sitting on. Shard of Tea Bowl: Jian ware.
