Made according to the principles of the Moly-Sabata colony, the ceramics are from local materials and in the local style of country or peasant pottery. The shapes are simple, the glazes are the same as country glazes of the region and the ceramics are very low-fired. The bowl and saucer have segmented rough patterns of stylised flowers and geometric panels. This decoration is also related to simplified cubist abstraction of natural forms, developed in Dangar's ceramics later in the 1930s.
