Description

A tall, two-handled pottery vessel stands on a draped white cloth, shown frontally. It has a broad, rounded body that tapers to a narrow pointed base with a small foot, a narrow neck and a flat, flared rim. The surface shows many cracks and joins from reassembly, with some pale blue-grey fills, and handwritten marks are visible on the mount at the lower left.
