The image shows a cracked ceramic cup by Bernard Leach. The cup is round with a wide mouth and a small base. The cup is light gray with a cracked glaze that is darker on the lower half. The cracks in the glaze are fine and cover the entire surface. The cup sits on a flat surface with a light grey background. The cup appears to have a hairline crack down the inside. The edge of the cup is slightly chipped. The overall appearance is one of a simple, rustic design.
