DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Circular basin with deep curved sides standing on a high, straight-sided footrim. The lower part of the bowl is decorated with engine-turned bands, extending upwards for half an inch. Above is a narrow blue enamel band serving as the ground line for four  applied sprigs of classical gods and putti: two putti with torches, a god and an eagle, a putto hugging a lion and a seated goddess holding up a putto; these are separated by either a plant and a butterfly or a plant and a small bird. The rim is turned and finished with a blue band; there is a wider blue band halfway up the footring. The exterior is smear-glazed, the underside is unglazed and the interior glazed.
object type: Off-white felspathic stoneware slop basin with applied reliefs, edged with blue enamel.
