Description

A large two-handled vessel with a rounded body and a short wide neck, standing on a low ring base against a plain background. Dark concentric circles are spaced over the neck band, shoulder and body, and the strap handles have rows of dots along their edges. Several cracks run across the body, showing that the pot has been broken and mended.
