Rim and body fragment, mended from several fragments and strengthened with plaster. Narrow reserved band on inside at rim; another 0.056 below rim. Glaze pitted and abraded in places, especially on rim. P.H. 0.34; P.W. as restored 0.32.

Chariot of Poseidon galloping to left. All that remains of the god is a little of his drapery and his right hand holding the reins, as well as a bit of his trident, the prongs of which overlap the wings of the horses. Part of the wheel, box, and rail of the chariot are preserved. Of the horses, the manes of the trace horses, the heads and necks of the pole horses, the wings, two forehoofs, most of the hind legs, and three tails remain (the artist drew only three tails, even though there are four horses). On rim, laurel wreath to right. Below the figures, maeander pattern with cross-squares. The rim of the chariot wheel is incised (compass-drawn).
