A charcoal handbuilt cup with a torn rim and a body carrying pale frost-like speckle, distinguished by two raised, knobbly pale crusty patches — one on the upper shoulder, one on the lower left — that stand proud of the dark wall. A single round hole is bored through the front. What the pale crust is stays unsaid; the pages record only how it looks.
What are the two white patches? Thick pale crusty deposits sitting proud of the dark wall, described by appearance only — their material and cause are left open. Piece 1776 of 10,000, listed at $17.76.
