Description

Small

Wide mouthed vessel with an ovate body, flaring collar, rounded rim, 2 strap handles on the body, and a conical (aribaloid) base. There are no molded/modeled additions and no decoration. The vessel was likely fired in an oxidizing atmosphere as the ceramic paste is orange in color. The catalogue number is written on the bottom of the base and black ink on the bottom of the base reads: "2207a."
