Pottery vessels are arranged in four tiers against a pale backdrop. A large jar with painted horizontal bands stands at the top centre, flanked by jugs and juglets, some with handles and spouts. The middle tiers hold two round, flat vessels with loop handles and a footed cup, while the lower rows show small handled jugs, a bowl and flat lids along the bottom edge.
