3 large Tokoname area bowls stacked upon each other and fused likely when the kiln collapsed some nearly 1000 years ago. Fabulous ash glaze runs in rivulets on the side of the second inner bowl revealed where the outermost bowl on bottom has been shattered. On top a heavy collection of fused earth and kiln debris fills the basins. It is roughly 32 cm diameter, 19 cm tall.
