Description

A two-handled pottery vessel with a wide flared rim, a narrow neck and a round body on a low foot. Dark horizontal painted bands run around the neck and shoulder, and a thicker band encircles the lower body, with the handles attached at the shoulder. The pale clay surface shows small chips and marks, and the vessel stands on a plain light surface against a pale backdrop.
