Description

A tall two-handled amphora with a narrow neck, a flat rim and a small foot stands on a light surface against a plain backdrop. Horizontal bands of dark paint run around its body, and a curved line pattern crosses the shoulder. Old cracks have been mended, with blue filler visible near the base, and a number label sits at the lower left.
