Description

A large two-handled pottery vessel with a tall neck, rounded body and ring foot, shown upright from the front against a plain pale background. Several thin horizontal lines encircle the neck and shoulder, and a broad dark band with fine lines runs around the body above the lower, unpainted part. The rim is broken away on the right side, and the surface shows some small chips.
