Description

A round-bodied pot stands on three tubular legs and has two loop handles at the shoulder and a flaring rim. Several horizontal bands of dark paint run around the body, and concentric circle motifs appear near the top on either side. The surface is worn and pitted, and the vessel is shown on a pale plain surface against a grey backdrop.
