Deep Bowl: Gnathia Ware.

Single wall fragment, broken all around; inner surface pitted.

Large, open vase with nearly vertical wall. At top, an ivy vine with white stem and dot rosettes, yellow sponged over white on leaves. Two broad red fillets hang from vine, the one on the right shorter and with a white fringe; pattern of white lines and dots are painted over the red, and the right edge of the left fillet and left edge of right fillet are outlined in white. To left, a thin white fillet with double fringe. Hard, fine, very micaceous, pink fabric (ca. 7.5YR 8/4) with small black inclusions, partly mottled gray; black glaze.

Preserved is the right-hand side of a symmetrical composition of fillets flanking a central motif, probably a dramatic mask. For the pattern on deep bowls and kraters see Langlotz 1932, no. 833, p. 149, pl. 241. Also similar are Forti 1965, pls. XVIII:a, XXVIII:d and Webster 1951, no. 20, p. 223, fig. 1. J. R. Green attributes the piece tentatively to the Alexandria Group.
