I think of this bown as being masculine in gender. It has a visceral and rugged feel to the carving. I want to attribute it to Weston because Weston liked to cast ware thick so that he could carve into it but Weston's designs usually took a more uniform and integrated approach. This bowl is literally filled with unexpected turns of events, as if it has three or four separate personas in one. Every turn of the bowl delivers a new face. It could be the work of Gerda Andersen, whom I am awaiting an answer to this mystery.
The bowl is simply decorated with coral accentuating the carving and glazed in white. Three and a half inches tall. Five and a half inches at widest diameter.
