Here's a description of the image:

The image showcases a fragment of what appears to be an ancient ceramic piece, possibly a plate or bowl, laid against a plain, light background. The fragment is shaped like a partial semicircle with a crackled, light blue glaze overlaid with a fan-like pattern of black lines radiating from a central point. The edges of the ceramic piece are rough and unfinished, with a beige or off-white color that contrasts with the glazed surface. There are some small areas where the glaze has chipped away, revealing the raw material underneath. The piece rests on a similarly colored and textured base that appears to be a chunk of stone or hardened clay, which may be part of its original context or a support structure. The overall appearance suggests an artifact that has been unearthed or preserved.

The image shows a fragment of a ceramic plate on a white background. The shard is a roughly triangular shape, displaying a design of a stylized fan or shell. The design features a series of black, curved lines radiating outward from a central dark, almost black, area. The background color of the design is a light, pale green. The edges of the shard are rough and uneven, indicating it is broken. The shard is embedded in a beige, stony base, which appears to be a part of the original dish or a material that the shard is attached to. The surface of the ceramic has a cracked appearance, likely due to age.
