Description

Close view of a round-bodied vessel with a tall neck and a single loop handle on the left, shown against a pale background. Dark painted decoration covers the body, with a stylised motif of curved lines, round eyes and hatched bands, and a band of dark paint runs around the neck. Cracks and repairs cross the surface, and the rim is cut off by the top edge of the frame.
