A lumpy cube of a vessel in pale greige, speckled blue-gray, its small oval mouth ringed by a raised collar. Two of its photos turn it over: the number 542 is incised into a raised rectangular pad on the base, like a little clay tablet. Staged on a crackled white ground with a penny beside.
What’s under it? Its own name plate — a raised pad carrying 542, scratched in by hand. Piece 542 of 10,000, listed at $5.42.
