Description

A round-bodied, two-handled vessel with a wide flaring rim, shown alone against a plain pale background. Two pierced loop handles rise from the shoulder. Double-lined white zigzag bands run around the neck and body, with small dotted motifs at their points, and the dark surface shows wear and flecks.
