Double Vessel

Pottery; Globular bodies with bridge and seated man on closed vessels.

Narrow-necked jar/bottle with a globular body, cylindrical neck, missing rim, 1 bridge handle extending between the necks, and a flat base. The vessel has a modeled/molded seated human figure sitting on one of the globular chambers. The whole vessel is slipped and painted with bands of geometric design in red, white, and black. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior. The vessel was likely fired in an oxidizing atmosphere as the ceramic paste is orange in color. The catalogue number is written on the object in black ink on the bottom of the base. Black ink on the bottom of the base reads: "3280."
