Description

The vessel stands upright against a plain light grey backdrop, with a thick flared rim, a tall narrow neck and a wide, rounded body that narrows to a small base. Its surface is smooth with small pits and faint tool marks, and a small paper number label with handwriting is attached at the upper left. The photograph is mounted on a light card with a cream border.
