Description

A large two-handled vessel with a rounded body, tall flaring neck and wide rim stands on a small foot against a pale background. Dark painted bands encircle the shoulder and lower body, with a small triangle motif below the neck. The loop handles sit at the shoulders, and the surface shows fine scratches and small marks.
