From the Getty Museum record
A shallow bowl with single grooves marking the perimeter of the tondo and edge of the rim. The rim is flaring with a wide, overhanging lip. The stem is short and the wide foot has a thick edge and concave top. Interior: reserve band around the tondo which depicts the large profile head of a woman facing left. She wears an undecorated diadem with two spikes and a netted sakkos. The jewelry consists of a pendant earring with three dots and a dotted necklace. Squiggles represent an earlock and two waves of hair behind the diadem. Around the tondo, a consecutive wave crest, with five of the six waves preserved.
