Description

A dark-surfaced pottery vessel with a tall narrow neck, a flared rim, a rounded body and a low ring base, shown alone against a plain grey backdrop. The body has a relief concentric-circle motif with vertical ridges above it and rope-moulded bands running down and outward from it. The surface is worn and flaked in places, and a small knob projects from the left side.
