4 Form Elements The form has a smooth foot, belly, shoulder and rim. The form appears to have 3 of the 4 dominant elements.
The form has 2 of the four elements. Only one specific element stands out.
4 Symmetry of the Form The forms appear very close to being in radial symmetry The form are only slightly out of radial symmetry. The forms are obviously out of radial symmetry. The forms are nowhere near circular.
4 Dynamic Profile The form is dynamic (curved) which displays the principle of movement. The form displays a slight curvature from foot to rim. The form is basically a straight cylinder. The form appears to be more of a teepee shape.
4 Clean- Marked Foot The foot is smooth and marked with the artists name. The foot may show a few lumps with barely discernable initials. The foot or wall is stained or incised with the artists signature. There is no apparent signature of any kind in the form.
