Description

A two-handled vessel with a rounded body, a narrow neck and a ring foot stands on a pale cloth. The neck panel has bird-like motifs between vertical stripes, and the body carries horizontal bands and a dark painted zone below the shoulder. A crack runs down the body, and a joined break shows on the lower body near the foot.
