Made of glass with large bubbles and ridges, twelve radiating ribs projecting from the underside provide a footing and an ornament for this shallow bowl. Again on the underside to avoid heavy wear, a wide band of gold leaf incised with parallel lines and a "fish-scale" pattern colored with pale blue enamel dots embellishes the rim.
