Fiziksel açıklama
Multinecked vase in 2 greys and black. The central neck is surrounded by four smaller ones. All rims are everted but only the main one has a scroll of small dark leaves around it and a larger one on the outside above four strange flower sprays. The base of the smaller necks are marked by tips of plantain leaves. The shoulder space between them is filled with four reserve-painted panels with birds, rosettes and clouds. On opposite sides of the body figures walk past balustrades. Vegetation fill odd empty spaces. A double line leads to a band of striped panels set on a band of dark wash.
