Reassembled from fragments. On both sides of the exterior, two eyes (black and red), with white for the irises and brows. The noses are rendered in outline, with additional dots or lines running down between the eyes. The interior includes a fragmentary Gorgoneion, surrounded by a net pattern; around it, a circular frieze of dolphins in a tightly packed formation. A reserved continuous zone below the lip edge is filled by an ivy wreath.
