A dark, round-bodied vessel with a wide flaring neck and two small loop handles, one on each side, stands on a metal ring stand. A band of diagonal incised strokes in a herringbone pattern runs around the shoulder below the neck. The surface is worn and chipped in places, and the background is a pale card mount with a border.
