A hand-built brownware pottery vessel with a stable base, an egg-shaped body with a sloped shoulder, a stirrup-shaped handle, and a gently carinated cylindrical spout with a slanted lip projecting from the top. The decorative motifs are split vertically into two halves, with one bearing smooth surface textures, and the other bearing meticulously pecked patterns that create a nice texture.
