A shallow bowl with a sharply offset lip. The decoration is in shades of brown and red. At the center of the inside of the bowl is a brown swastika. On the inner face of the lip are brown bands at the upper and lower edges and a reddish brown band along the middle. The outer face of the lip has a band of brown at the rim. On the body: a broad brown band with two oblique lines running from the handle on each side, then a red band with, below it, a brown band with a "frieze" of four short pendent strokes in five groups. On the base: an eight-spoked wheel motif in brown. The handle is decorated with red and brown bands.
