The fragment preserves the mouth, pierced handle, and only part of the body of the vase. The surface is worn and the painted decoration is very much abraded; some dirt remains encrusted on the interior and in the area of the handle. On the top of the lip: rays. At the join of the mouth to neck: row of small dots and, below, a row of larger dots. Body: two rows of alternating dots between two pairs of encircling lines
