Description

A single vessel stands upright on a pale circular foot, photographed against a light grey background and mounted on a card. The body is dark and glossy with a flaring mouth and a single loop handle, and a white band near the shoulder carries dark leaf-like motifs and a key pattern. The black surface shows many light scratches and small losses, and a handwritten label and a number label appear on the card.
