Description

A small pear-shaped pottery vessel stands upright on a plain pale background, its narrow neck and rim broken away to a ragged opening. The grey-brown surface carries vertical bands of pale chevron patterns and horizontal ridged bands around the shoulder, base and sides. The surface is rough and encrusted, with worn patches.
