Description

A rounded vessel tapers to a narrow foot and has a wide opening at the top. Two curved, pointed lugs stand at the left of the rim, and two disc-shaped knobs with radiating spokes sit at the right. Bands of incised lines run round the shoulder and lower body, with zigzag and chevron patterns and a central branching motif with spiral curls, and the vessel is shown against a plain light background on a mounted card.
