Description

A vessel with two tall, flaring spouts rising from a rounded body, joined by a bridge with two rectangular openings and a small projection on top. Loop-like lugs sit on each side of the shoulder, and the surface is decorated with horizontal bands and diagonal hatched lines in pale paint against a darker ground. The vessel stands on a thin metal rod support against a dark backdrop, with some surface wear and speckling visible.
