Any thoughts on this "different" shaped jar/bowl sherd...

.....this is the only one we've come across like this...guess it's the bottom part? The painting is on the outside so must have been a bowl/jar thing....ever seen one like that? Or....maybe it's just a very odd break?
Thanks

Don't know Kat but really like that color. You guys find some cool stuff on your land.

Like Tn mnt said it's hard to tell, but that is some nice color

Isn't that beautiful! Maybe more of a plate than a bowl or jar? That's a shallow angle... Yak

That's a pretty piece. Love that red, it really stands out.

....thanks guys for looking...I don't really know if they made "plates" back then with painting on the "outside"...will have to look it up. All of the bowls & "pieces" we've found were rounded on the bottom, not like this one....could it be the top or where a handle use to be....thinking out loud here...sorry....
