Bowl by George E. Ohr. The bowl is made of clay and has a marbled terracotta and light brown color. The bowl appears to be a single piece of clay molded into multiple curved sections that are folded in on each other. The shape of the bowl is irregular, with several curved openings. The base of the bowl is flat and circular. The background is a plain gray surface with a subtle shadow cast by the bowl.
