Tripod Cooking Vessel (Li)

The Tripod Cooking Vessel (Li) by Unknown Artist is a grey, stone or ceramic object with a rough texture. The vessel has a wide mouth and a short, narrow rim that is slightly chipped. The body of the vessel is bulbous and roughly cylindrical with vertical ridges covering most of its surface. The base of the vessel has three legs that taper to a point, providing stability. The legs are roughly equal in size and are positioned evenly around the base. The background of the image is white, with a shadow cast by the vessel.
