Descrizione:

Red-orange aryballus with a black spot probably due to poor cooking process. The conical base has a flat base, while the vertical neck has an everted edge painted in cream and two small lateral perforated sockets. The front wall is decorated with three cream-coloured bands that end on the fairing: two of them start from the base of the neck, the third by a plastic element, perhaps a stylized zoomorphic head, is applied to the shoulder. Two ribbon-like loops are visible on the belly.
