Description

A round-bodied, two-handled vessel with a wide flat-topped rim and a short foot, shown upright against a plain backdrop. The pale surface has horizontal bands around the body and loosely drawn star-like or radiating strokes. Cracks and repaired breaks run down the body, and the two loop handles rise from the shoulder to the rim.
