Standard southern Argolid LRA2 fabric, firing, and surface: pinkish fabric fired pale yellowish brown at very surface; rather fine, with little spalling; faint turning grooves on exterior rim, but mostly well smoothed.
Preservation comment
One large sherd preserves entire rim and uppermost part of neck. Sparse, slight abrasion with minor scratching and gouging; slightly worn breaks; little or no encrustation. Rare, irregular orange splotches on outside rim: postdepositional?
