A rectangular stoneware clay vessel curves upward at the sides, resembling a weathered, ridged slab. Deep horizontal grooves texture the surface. Primarily a muted tan and cream color, a pool of dark, glossy brown glaze centers the vessel before fading toward the thick, uneven edges. Small dark brown speckles scatter across the perimeter, where the form transitions into a rugged, organic appearance.
