Description

A large two-handled vessel with a wide open mouth, rounded body and short ring foot, shown against a plain pale background. Two small loop handles rise from the upper body, and a raised band runs below the rim. The grey-buff surface has dark painted linear motifs, arcs and fan-like strokes around the shoulder and belly, and several cracks run across the body.
