Description

A small two-handled vessel with a wide flared mouth, a narrow neck and a rounded body on a short foot. The two rounded handles rise from the shoulder to the neck, and the pale grey-white surface has darker patches, streaks and some flaking. It is photographed straight on, standing alone on a grey surface against a plain grey backdrop.
