Mug with a cylindrical form and ravenstone glaze. The form flares at the bottom of the mug and tapers towards the base. The exterior is decorated with plain, dimensional bands most likely formed during the shaping process. These bands do not continue past the flaring of the form and the bottom part of the mug is smooth. The mug's handle is a rounded square, placed at an angle to the mug. The mug's interior is also uniformly glazed.
