A sizable pottery bowl constructed via the Puebloan coil-and-scrape technique with a round but stable base, a thin rim, and tall walls. The white-ground basin surfaces are densely decorated with spiraling bands that coalesce into elaborate openwork diamond patterns; the circular center panel is undecorated.
