The bowl is complete, with a few missing pieces at the top. The bowl is circular in shape. In profile, it has a slightly flared wall topped by a straight rim. The lower part of the wall is curved towards the bottom, which is flat. The bowl rests on a solid ring-shaped foot, the fulcrum of which is partially free of glaze. There are wear marks on the inner base ; The decoration is hand-painted in underglaze blue. It is found on the outer and inner sides of the bowl, as well as on the inner base. The decoration is floral, and is reproduced almost identically on the outer and inner walls. There is a braid under the inner and outer rims, outlined with a fillet; they are adorned with two alternately repeated motifs, a double spiked cross and a solid band adorned with a central oval flanked by two wavy lines done in Sgraffito. The decoration on the outer wall is made up of four identical groups, with a large central flower flanked by leafy, flowering stems; between them is a small plant element; the decoration on the inner wall is similar, except for the absence of a central flower in the groups. The outer decoration is outlined with a double fillet, while the inner is outlined with a single fillet. The decoration on the inner base of the bowl is similar to that on the outer wall, namely a large central flower flanked by leafy, flowering stems. There is an iron-brown coating on the top of the rim.
