Complete: 2 sections glued together. Torus foot. A line, wheel-painted, encircles pot part way up lower wall. This serves as a base-line for a framed panel on each side. In the panel on each side is a horizontal spray of olive; above this on each side is a horizontal toothed design just below lip. Most of the color has disappeared from the decoration leaving "footprints"; pale yellow is still preserved, however, in the toothed designs and in the framing lines. Underside unglazed except for inner face of foot.
