Description

13.5 in. Dia., 6 in. Tall. A large utilitarian dairy bowl, or pancheon, constructed from heavy red-burning earthenware. The vessel is wheel-thrown with a wide-flaring conical form, a flat base, and a thick, reinforced out-turned rim. The interior is finished with a thick, glossy lead glaze in a pale cream or cane color. The exterior body is left unglazed, exposing the natural deep terracotta color and coarse texture of the clay.
