The dish is well potted with shallow sides flaring up and out to the notched rim which is divided into six shallow lobes. It is covered overall with a lustrous glaze of creamy-grey tone suffused with a wide network of black 'iron-wire' crackle joined by finer gold 'golden thread' crackle which continues over the slightly tapering ring foot to cover the base with six spur marks that show the dark grey ware.
