Structurally, it is characterized by its evenly rounded mid-section, high sweeping shoulders, a small neat crown, and a slightly pulled, flat base. It is a highly respected classic lineage, valued for its thin but exceptionally dense shell wall that yields a quick color transformation and a lightweight, fluid roll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e[Product Characteristics of DL-1103]\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFlawless 1:1 Circular Symmetry:\u003c\/b\u003e Measuring exactly 38.0mm in width and 38.0mm in depth.
