This vessel is made of a fine pink-coloured fabric, and has a flattened base, a straight waist, and a slightly shrunken mouth, topped by a slender lip. Two incised lines emphasise the location of the maximum diameter of the vessel, while the waist is decorated with three groups of three drop shapes painted off-white.
