Description

A single pottery vessel is photographed on a pale surface against a grey backdrop. Its rounded body rises from a short ring foot to a short rim, with two loop handles at the shoulders. Dark painted horizontal bands run around the body, with a leafy, stylised motif on the right side, and cracks and restored joins run across the surface.
