Rim missing.
Deep ovoid jug on spreading ring foot; very narrow neck; handle from base of neck, concave on outer face. Pale pinkish buff clay and surfacing. Banded decoration: dull black for a broad band between two narrow bands at the shoulder, black to brown for a single irregular line at the base of the neck, brown on the foot.
As pointed out in the original publication, the line of glaze at the base of the neck preserves the idea of a drip-ring seen on 1667, and also on the Attic black globular lekythoi, Pl. 39.
