A two-handled vessel with a flaring rim, rounded body and small foot stands on a pale surface. The body has dark lattice-patterned bands and a framed rectangular panel with a dark motif, and pale plaster fills cover parts of the lower right side and the neck. Handwritten number labels in dark ink sit on the lower body below the panel.
