Face-neck vessel. Narrow-necked jug with a globular body, flaring neck, flattened rim, 1 strap handle extending from the neck to the body, and a flat base. There are modeled/molded ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and chin with incised eyebrows and arms. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior. The vessel was likely fired in a reducing atmosphere as the surface is black and the interior is gray in color. Evidence of usewear includes surface attrition on the bottom/base. The catalogue number is written on the object in black ink. No other numbers are visible on the object.
