Description

A round-bodied pot with a short neck and a wide, fan-shaped top that has radiating stripes and a row of dark dots along its edge. The lower half of the body carries a broad dark painted band, and a dark stylised motif rises on the upper body, with areas of paint flaked away. The vessel stands on a plain, light surface against a plain background.
