Description: | Class A II, according to Blegen. The pot is unusually tall for its length, and its upright lines contrast with the more horizontal lines of the average sauceboat. The vessel stands on a well-shaped raised base. The veryical handle is similar to that of Z317, but is not fashioned with such clear-cut lines; its attachment below is rectangular and metallic in origin. The spout is comparatively short and slender, with its lip sharply rolled. (Blegen, Zygouries, pg 80-81) | |
Decoration: | On the surface is an excellent polished slip of the same color, uniform over all without blotches and mottling. (Blegen, Zygouries, pg 81) | |
