Description
Exterior: palmette pattern and rays (?) separated by a row of dots between horizontal lines. A graffito faintly incised. Interior: black glazed, but streaky. Decoration seems related to the open end of an epinetron (Athens NM 2184: ABV 481; ABL pl. 34:2; ABFV no. 263) and the shape, with very little curvature, would allow this; but the piece lacks the scale pattern that is typical of this shape.
Dimensions
P.H. 0.046; P.W. 0.032; Th. 0.005.
