This outcurved bowl has an outflared everted rim with a rounded lip. The outflaring rim begins 8.5 cm from the base and is 7.4 cm in width. The base is flat and measures 31 cm. Color and paste composition is within the characteristics of the Society Hall variety. Slip was applied to the interior of the vessel and to the exterior of the lip, but the exterior walls are unslipped. A cross was slipped onto the interior base. The arms of the cross continue onto the walls. At the center of the cross, a circle was painted and outlined by four dots that form a quadrangle. The outflared everted rim was decorated by three incised elements that resemble eyebrows or half moons.
