A peaked, elongated stoneware lid features a thick, crusty ash glaze in mossy green and cream. Faceted sides are pierced by geometric X-patterns and triangular cutouts. Through these apertures, the dark interior reveals hints of deep red. Rectangular patches of reddish-orange mark the base. The rugged surface appears weathered, like an ancient ruin, with the granular glaze pooling and swirling across its architectural frame.
