Description

A single pottery vessel with a pear-shaped body, a tall neck with a flared rim and a strap handle running from shoulder to neck. A knobbed projection sits on the shoulder, and the body carries horizontal painted bands, a zone of stylised motifs and a lower panel of diamond-lattice pattern. The surface is worn and pitted in places, and the vessel stands on a flat disc foot against a plain pale background.
