Interiors are usually smudged and can be so well smudged that you may see a rainbow of colors shining off of the dark black surface, others can have a silver shine. Corrugation can be rough, smoothed, or even polished.

8Y Reserve Spiral-Rub Indented Corrugated Bowl, Safford Regional Variety.

This rather unique bowl appears to have spiral ridges extenuating from top to bottom. The ridges may have been formed while using a tool while making the indentations in the coils (some of the coils can be seen in the raised ridges). A broken stick may have been used as the clay appears rough and unsmoothed between the rubbed or smoothed ridges. Approximate Dimensions: 4" by 3 5/8"

Largest is 2 1/8" by 2 1/4", indented corrugated coils average 3/8" or 9mm wide.
