The bowl has a shallow, geometric pattern on the outside, beginning with a band of wide diamonds. Below the band of diamonds, vertical flutes curve around the lower edge onto the bottom of the bowl. Circling the pontil mark, there is a pattern of impressed diamonds. The bottom edge of the bowl has a ring of light scratches and wear, especially on the raised flutes of the pattern. The exterior and interior of the bowl have many light scratches.
