Tea Bowl with Cross Design
The Tea Bowl with Cross Design features a sturdy base and rounded body. A light brown and tan color dominates with darker brown accents resembling a glaze. The sides and base display a darker brown with visible wear. A light-colored cross-like design adorns the front, while two rectangular patterns with lines appear on either side. The interior reveals stacking marks and the same color scheme as the exterior. The background transitions from dark to light gray behind the bowl. Created by artist Bernard Leach.
