A pottery bowl on a short, flared foot, with a single loop handle on the right side. Its wall is painted with horizontal bands, vertical panels of stripes and a four-petalled cross-like motif, with small hooked motifs between them. Cracks run through the rim and body, and the foot is dark and mottled; the bowl is shown in side view against a plain grey background.
