 This is a slightly deep flat bowl with a flattened rim. It is shaped like a simple ring flower by pressing in three places, and has legs on three sides of the bottom. There are three red omissions in the prospect, and a sesame glaze has been applied over the dark brown firing from the mouth to the prospect. The sides are also covered with a thick layer of sesame glaze. There are five sticking marks on the outside, and a bold kiln mark is spatula-engraved on the bottom.
