Context (Amendments / updates)
1925.630 A is described on historic documentation as a bowl. However, it looks more like a lid; the stem would act as a handle, but prevents the object from sitting flat on its base, which limits its function as a bowl. It has very similar carved designs to this bowl, so it is possible that they are a lid and base that go together, rather than two separate bowls.
