Micaceous variant of standard LRA2 Southern Argolid fabric, with typical firing and surface treatment: pinkish core with slight more pale brown surfaces (2 mm); thin wash is well smoothed on exterior. Dense gouges across surface from use: prying out stopper?

One sherd preserves 33% of rim and small part of upper neck. Very slight, sparse abrasion with flaking; somewhat worn breaks; faint clouds of white discoloration (incipient encrustation).
