A single globular vessel with a tall, flaring neck, a ring moulding at the base of the neck and one strap handle on the left. It is photographed from the front on a three-legged wire stand against a pale backdrop. The surface is dark and worn, with light scratches and flaking patches, and no clear painted pattern is visible in this view.
