Description

A globular two-handled vessel is photographed alone against a pale background, with a broken, flared neck and a low ring base. Dark painted bands run around the shoulder and upper body, with a panel of cross-hatched motifs at the centre, while the lower body is plain. One handle is broken near its join with the shoulder, and a handwritten number label sits along the bottom edge of the card.
