Decorated over the dull orangey Urfirnis slip with reddish-orange glaze: inside, languettes sweeping left, pendant from lip stripe; outside, on shoulder partially preserved diagonal stripe-band and wavy-hatched acute angle, on collar, tall tongue tilted slightly on left, from lip-stripe to articulation stripe. | |
