Large fragment, including the mouth, handle, and shoulder. The interior of the mouth is glazed. Around the opening of the mouth are two concentric circles of glaze, with numerous "matchstick" tongues springing from the outer circle. Portions of thirty-nine tongues remain. There are two additional circles of glaze near the rim. The back of the flat handle has wide bands of glaze running vertically along either side. On the edge of the rim are many tiny dots of glaze, twelve of which are preserved to the right of the handle and one to the left. On the shoulder are short, thin tongues (fifteen preserved). Glaze: chocolate brown and glossy. Clay: hard, smooth, and fine, with faceted breaks. Munsell no. 7.5 YR 7/4 (pink).
The decorative scheme is typical of works in the Lion Group to which this piece should be assigned. The Lion Group lasts into MC, but the small dots on the thick rim and the position of numerous tongues on the mouth of this piece are typical of EC.
