Description

A two-handled vessel with a wide, rounded body and a broad, flat-topped rim, photographed in side view on a pale surface. The body is made up of visibly joined fragments, with dark cracks running around the shoulder and across the belly. Two loop handles rise from the shoulder and curve outward, one on each side, and the base sits low on the surface.
