Dish: shallow; rim plain; wall curves downward and inward to bottom; very narrow flat base; pontil mark consisting of incomplete circular scar. Decorated with colored trails arranged in sunburst with swirling rays which radiate from center and become progressively less organized toward rim: twelve short translucent deep blue rays of unequal length; thirteen longer opaque white rays and thirteen longer translucent yellow rays; many even longer blue and reddish-orange rays, which extend to edge. Rim is finished with cane consisting of two colorless and opaque white canes containing multiple white rods, spirally twisted and cased with colorless.
