Description

A round-bodied vessel with a tall neck that divides into two upright spouts, and a tubular strap handle rising from the shoulder to a ringed knob at the top left. The body is painted with diamond-lattice panels separated by plain vertical bands, with small motifs in one panel, a horizontal band near the base and wavy lines on the neck. It stands on a pale surface against a light backdrop.
