The image shows a cup on a foot. The cup is made of ceramic or glass and has a wide mouth that tapers slightly inward. Its body is rounded and sits on a short, thick foot. The surface of the cup is primarily light gray with darker gray streaks and splotches throughout. The darker gray areas are more prominent towards the top and appear to drip down towards the bottom. There is a rough, textured patch on the front. The background of the image is light grey. The cup is by Shuntai.
