Plain rounded rim, steep walls, flat bottom left rough. Pale greenish buff clay and surfacing. Built up by coiling; the coils prominent on the exterior but the inside smooth and little worn; somewhat blackened from burning on one side.
Possibly made as a lekane rather than a mortar. The fabric somewhat resembles Argive monochrome.
