Description

A tall, narrow pottery vessel with a flared rim, a short neck and a single loop handle on the upper left shoulder, its body tapering to a pointed base. The surface is pieced together from many fragments, with cracks and joins running around the body and a few small losses near the middle. It stands on a bare floor in front of a light draped cloth.
