This fine stoneware bowl was made during the 13th - 15th century. It has been coated in quite a thick transparent crackled celadon glaze. The inner surface has been decorated with incised patterns, the centre of which is obscured by the thickness of the pooled glaze. The outer wall has been deeply carved with repeated vertical lines. The glaze has sagged and run to the edge of the unglazed foot and base that has fired to a reddish-brown colour. The ring within the recessed base is the mark of the pontil on which this bowl was fired. 

A good size with a diameter of 24.5 cm. There is minor surface wear. No repair or restoration; a nice example in very good condition.
