Decoration
The exact organisation of the decoration is uncertain due to the state of preservation of the vessel. It seems that a number of downturned triangles were hanging from the rim; they were likely fille with crosshatching and/or chevrons. If there were further motifs on the bottom, nothing remains of them.
