Three nonjoining fragments: part of foot and lower body (a and c); wall fragment (b).
Cup rests on low ridge. Fragment a preserves eight broad grooves, continuous from foot up, giving the impression of ridging rather than grooving. Grooves become narrower and shallower higher on the wall. Center of floor defined by glazed groove; break suggests there was originally an emblem. In register bounded by one glazed and one scraped groove above, elaborate garland with trilobed leaves and tendrils accented by rows of dots. Lustrous black glaze.
