How about an ASCII art representation instead of it from the side. :-)
It's a saucepan, but with this shape.

I have a saucepan with an odd shape. I was given it by my mum. It has bulbous sides; the bottom half bulges out and the top half is relatively straight.
Does anyone know what type of pan this is and what it's for? I can't seem to find any pictures of anything similar.
