A small cup with a flowerpot flare, its pale buff wall patched in crusty chocolate-brown — the dark pieces sit like torn paper or peeling bark, edges ragged, dense on one side and scattering to flecks on the other. A glossy grey rolled band caps the rim. Nothing else in the run wears this look; the registry holds it on watch until a second piece appears.
Applied or torn away? The single photo can’t arbitrate — the patches could be laid on or be what’s left of a coat that came off. The page records the pattern and holds the question. Piece 1932 of 10,000, listed at $19.32.
