This is a dark gray, high-fired stoneware lidded bowl decorated with a stamped design. A ring-shaped knob at the top of the lid is surrounded by vertically aligned dotted designs radiating outwards. The bowl rim is rounded, while two narrowly incised lines surround its widest part, located just below the lip of the rim where the lid rests. Below these lines, the body is stamped with a continuous, vertically aligned, horseshoe pattern. The short and broad horseshoe motif conveys a sense of stability.

In this picture, a woman smiles mischievously, facing her right. She is wearing two layers of robes, one red with white patterns, matching her hair tie, and one blue with pink and yellow flowers. One hand holds onto a large rock as she leans over it. Behind her a mountain and port are visible under a dark sky.<br /><br />
