Hard, compact brick-red paste with sand tempering.

Off-white background enamel that tends to have a bluish-white or greenish-white cast.

Designs are painted in combinations of light blue, light green and manganese brown or purple. The paint can appear foamy or fuzzy, and the edges of the design elements often appear to bleed or blur.

Motifs include stylized, hastily –executed floral elements painted around the rim in a band, and in the center of vessels. Other motifs include curves, swirls, wavy lines, and splotches, which may in fact be portions of floral designs.
