The cut is complete. It is cylindrical in shape. Its wall is high, slightly flared towards the rim, which is wide and almost flat. At its base, the bowl curves towards the stem, which is shaped like a flattened sphere. The foot is circular in shape, with a truncated cone profile at the top; it is thick. The underside has a slight off-center circular indentation and a trace of glass pontil; the decoration is molded. It is geometric. The outer wall of the bowl is decorated with straight flutes with rounded edges, which stop below the rim. They continue on the knob, which rests on the foot.
