Description

A dark, bulbous vessel with a narrow pointed base, a tall neck ending in a double-lipped mouth, and a single loop handle on one side. Vertical bands of incised feather-like pattern run down the neck and shoulder beside a raised twisted ridge. The surface shows light wear and small chips, and the vessel is photographed against a plain pale backdrop on a card mount with a scale strip at the left edge.
