- Description
- Large hemispherical cup or handleless(?) krater. Rounded body. Concave rim marked below on exterior face by raised band and flange and above by squared-off lip. Three narrow horizontal bands of rouletting on upper body. Large size and elaborate rim identify this as Form 1b variant.
- Fabric, firing, and surface description
- Dark orange fabric, slip slightly darker with tinge of red?; consistently fired. Fine, somewhat soft; smooth break; uncommon, tiny, poorly sorted, dark and light bits; densely micaceous in tiny specks. Thin but even, semiglossy slip, flaking near edges, over surviving exterior and rim and down inside upper wall.
- Preservation comment
- Two joining sherds preserve less than 25% of upper body and rim. Slight, sparse abrasion, chipping, and gouging; clean breaks.
