Description

A two-handled vessel with a narrow neck, rounded body and flat, slightly splayed foot, shown in side view against a pale background. Its dark, mottled surface has closely spaced vertical grooves on the lower body and a horizontal line at the shoulder. Several cracks run across the vessel, which appears to be pieced together from fragments.
