Preservation comment
One sherd preserves <10% of rim and most of profile except center of floor. Extensive, severe erosion and abrasion with slight chipping; worn breaks; scattered gray clouding and specks of encrustation. Fabric discolored and slip heavily word or entirely missing due to long marine submersion.
