Approximately one half of a creamware bowl. The exterior surface is decorated with a brown clouded glaze and blotches of light green glaze. The interior surface is decorated with a brown tortoiseshell glaze. The vessel appears to be burned in several areas and the sherds are slightly warped. There is some discoloration on the glaze and paste, which may be from the fire or a privy. The base has a diameter of approximately 3 1/2 inches and a footring with a tall, 18th-century shape.
