The walls of the extremely thin body are almost straight to the almost flat bottom with a large tubular pontil mark of 2.2 cm diameter. The glazed decoration is divided into : - Three to four very thin turns of opaque white glass under the lip. - Five to six towers at mid-height of nets of the same nature. - Near the bottom, eight pricked arches formed by five to six turns of very thin white nets stretched downwards and pricked in the material with a pointed instrument. This bowl is identical to bowl 18. It comes from the same workshop.
