Lobed bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The bowl "Lobed bowl" by the artist is a dark brown ceramic bowl with a glossy glaze. The bowl has a rounded base and a wide, slightly flared mouth. The rim of the bowl has indentations that form lobes; there are 6 visible lobes. The glaze on the bowl transitions from dark brown on the inside to a lighter brown along the rim. The background is a plain white surface, with a subtle shadow cast by the bowl.
