A jar with a wide, rounded body, a short neck and two looped handles rising from the shoulder. Dark painted strokes ending in spirals sweep across the upper body, above a band of horizontal stripes and several plain bands on the lower body. The vessel stands on a low ring base on a plain surface, shown on a mounted photographic card with handwritten notes at the top and bottom.
