The back cites this as being from the South Atlantic Large Marine Ecosystem (LME), with coordinates and description, "Where the Gulf Stream Turns" written into a thin sample of the same marine sediment glaze (applied thinly onto leatherhard clay). Green matte and rim glaze assembled from refined materials. |
