Description

A wide-bodied vessel with a short upright rim, two loop handles on the shoulder and three hollow looped feet stands on a pale surface against a plain background. The body is painted in dark and light bands: vertical hatched panels, horizontal lines below the shoulder, and central panels with stylised motifs and a diamond-and-chevron pattern. The surface shows some wear and small marks.
