Description

A dark, polished pottery vessel with a rounded body and wide top opening, mounted on a card with a border on a pale backdrop. A tubular spout projects to the right, two upright loop-like projections rise above the rim (one with circular incised rosettes), and a small modelled head with a pointed muzzle sits between them. Incised zigzag and chevron bands run across the body, and handwritten notes are partly visible at the lower right.
