Bowl with character of longevity (shou)
The bowl has a rounded shape with a wide mouth and a flat bottom. The bowl's base color is a light beige or off-white. The interior features a dark blue-gray design around the rim and a large circular motif in the center. The central design consists of two concentric circles with a blue-gray symbol in the middle resembling a Chinese character. The character appears to be written in a calligraphic style and is likely the character for "longevity" or "shou". The outer rim of the bowl has a decorative border with a dark blue-gray pattern. The bowl appears to be made of ceramic material with a glossy finish. The background of the image is a plain light gray color. The bowl by Kiyomizu ware is titled "Bowl with character of longevity (shou)".
