Fabric Description Bucchero
Description A fragmentary footed bucchero cup which preserves a full profile. The base, which is entirely preserved, is conical, tapering inward towards a narrow point at the tondo. The exterior of the tondo (all of which is preserved) is molded first concavely then convexly as it transitions to the vessel body. Above this, the vessel profile flares outward towards the shoulder, where the vessel carinates back towards the vessel center slightly. The rim projects upward from this point of carination, being only somewhat concave on the exterior profile. The body, shoulder, and rim are not fully preserved due to ancient breaks.
