Bowl with narrative scene
The bowl is ceramic with a wide mouth and a narrow base. The exterior features a narrative scene with four people. The people are wearing old-fashioned clothing. The person on the left appears to be holding something up in their right hand. The person on the right appears to be standing and leaning on a curtain. The two people in the middle appear to be seated. The scene on the exterior appears to be indoors, with a table and a curtain. The interior features a wide band of ornate designs around the rim, including flowers and geometric patterns. The bowl has a small foot and a decorative band around the base. The entire bowl appears to be monochrome with a cracked glaze. The artist is unknown but the title is "Bowl with narrative scene".
