Decoration
Six downturned, crosshatched triangles hang from the rim. The spaces between them are filled, on three occasion, with two oblique bands (filled with short parallel strokes) forming an inverted V-shape. Two other spaces are filled with a group of parallel vertical (or near-vertical) straight lines: three lines in one case, four lines in the ohter. The final space is empty.
The published drawing suggests that a concentric line was painted around the bottom; this is not certain.
