Here's a description of the image:

The image shows a fragment of an ancient pottery shard. The shard is roughly triangular in shape with irregular edges. The base color of the pottery is a tan or light brown. A significant portion of the shard is covered in a dark, almost black, glossy substance, likely paint or glaze.

Within the dark area, there are tan spots or shapes showing through, suggesting either degradation of the glaze or a deliberate decorative pattern. Some of these spots are arranged in a cluster, possibly resembling grapes or berries. The edges of the shard appear worn and chipped, indicative of its age and handling. The background is plain white.
