This medium sized, white ceramic bowl is plain white except for three green lines on the outer side of the bowl. Two of them are directly beneath the lip of the bowl and wrap around the entire thing. The top line is thicker than the lower one, the lower one being about the width of a line drawn by a pen or pencil. The third line is lower on the bowl, at the point where it curves toward the base. This decoration is the same width as the lower one in the upper grouping. The entire bowl is completely smooth and has a glass like sheen which makes it shiny. On the lip of the very bottom it is darker and more worn due to use. On the very base of the bowl is printed the company's name who makes it. Inside of a ribbon design is the word "Sterling" and below the ribbon says "Vitrified China" in a cursive font. Direcltly below those words is the location of "East Liverpool, Ohio U.S.A" in a standard font. The interior of the bowl is a plain white, but has a few stains on it from age and storage. Most of the stains are on the top lip. The biggest is in a circular shape and seems like it is in the ceramic itself. It also might just be discoloration in the ceramic because it is a natural material.

Dish (2011.7.171)

The top of this small white ceramic dish has a very simple design. There are two green lines. The thickest runs along the plate closest to the outer edge. The second line is around the very inside of the bowl, it is the width of a pen line. There are marks of wear along the edges of the dish from age and use. There are also several littler marks along on the inside of the plate at random intervals. There is a large chip along the edge of the plate. It is not just color that is missing but part of the plate itself. It is rectangular but follows the curve of the plate. There is dirt in the crevices and it has a rough texture. The plate iteslf is a glossy white color everywhere that the green is not. The back of the plate is completely plain except for the makers mark on the flat part of the base. It reads "The Bailey-Walker Vitrified China" inside of a little book and below the book it says 5-29, all in a light green ink that has faded over time. There is a litte green spot below the words that is probably from the machine dripping ink. There are orange stains on the back that also have a rougher texture because they have worn away the finish. They are larger than the ones on the front but are fewer in number. They appear at even intervals around the plate and were probably made by whatever was holding it in the Ice Cream Shop.
