Description

2014 Description: Conical vessel that tapers in slightly towards the rim. The base is convex. There are three incised bands below the rim. There are two incomplete strap handles, one on each side of the body. The object is possibly some type of frit ware. The body is pale and there is a white glaze (?) on the exterior. There are traces of a linear decoration extending the line of the handles. The color has altered and it is unclear what color this area was originally.
