Description

A two-handled vessel with a wide mouth, rounded body and low ring foot, shown in front view against a plain grey backdrop. Its body is reconstructed from many fragments, with pale join lines and cracks running across the surface, and scattered dark painted patches remain near the shoulder and right side. The loop handles rise from the rim to the upper body, and a handwritten label appears at the lower left.
