Broad ring foot, irregularly convex to exterior; rounded resting surface; convex underside. Rolled rim. Stamp in center of floor: cross within circle. Gritty, fairly hard fabric with mica and tiny white inclusions; light red (2.5YR 6/6) except in burned areas, where it is pinkish gray (7.5YR 6/2); metallic brown glaze.
