Not on view
Opaque pale greyish blue.
Cylindrical body with recessed central panel, then cup-shaped below; low circular base with flat lower edge and flat bottom. Three mold seams run down sides to top of prominent horizontal ridge; a separate cup-shaped section forms the lower body and base.
Remaining decoration in two registers: on body, central panel divided into three sections by a vertical thrysos-like staff or rod, with bud-like knobs on each end, floral sprays shoot out horizontally from each staff in symmetrical but different designs of ivy, vine, and laurel leaves with berries, with a plain raised band below expanding outwards to prominent horizontal ridge; above the base, a frieze of twenty-four upturned tongues in raised outline, interspersed at top with pointed darts; on bottom, three raised concentric circles, decreasing in thickness towards center, and central small knob.
Broken with all of rim, neck, and shoulder missing, and part of central panel; no trace of any handle(s); dulling and slight pitting, patches of thick creamy brown weathering on interior and exterior, much of surfaces covered with dull olive green film, and some iridescence on interior of bottom.
