Set of Five Everyday Vessels (Kurawanka Bowls)
The image shows a white ceramic bowl with a pattern of curved lines around the exterior. The bowl is round with a wide mouth and a short, cylindrical base. The curved pattern consists of multiple dark lines forming wave-like shapes around the bowl. The pattern starts from the top edge and extends about halfway down the bowl. The background is light gray, and the bowl casts a shadow on the surface below it. The image is in black and white. The bowl by Bernard Leach is titled "Set of Five Everyday Vessels (Kurawanka Bowls)".
