Description

A shallow round vessel photographed from above, with two loop handles projecting from opposite sides of the rim. The centre has a dark cross-shaped motif inside concentric rings, and the rim is divided into segments by radiating bands filled with cross-hatching and dots in dark paint on a pale surface. The vessel stands on a plain pale background, and the paint shows some wear.
