Tall cylindrical spout tapers slightly from body toward mouth. Spiral banding on exterior (H. ca. 0.014 m), slightly flatter and more distinct at upper edge than on other funnel spouts.
Fabric, firing, and surface description
On basis of golden micaceous flakes, some on surface, this is very near Micaceous Brown Argolid fabric, though fired to pinkish color. Surface usual pale buff.
Preservation comment
One sherd preserves most of spout but broken at both ends. Slight chipping and abrasion around edges; slight to moderate, somewhat extensive film to chunks of encrustation.
