Description

A dark grey pottery vessel stands on a pale surface against a plain backdrop. A tall curved spout rises from a rounded upper body with a loop handle on one side, and two shallow cups project from the shoulder, with a small cup partly visible behind on the left. The tapering lower body is covered with incised chevron, herringbone and horizontal band patterns, and the surface shows some pale wear.
