Description

A globular pot with a wide rim, two short horizontal handles at the shoulder and a footed base stands on a pale surface against a plain background. Dark painted bands run around the neck and shoulder, with a zigzag above, and a row of five concentric-circle motifs fills the middle of the body. A broader band of painted lines encircles the lower body.
