Physical DescriptionFragment. Transparent blue, with very few bubbles; decorated in opaque lemon yellow and opaque orange yellow. Blown; stained. Fragment of large, closed vessel (description assumes thicker end is near shoulder). Wall (Th. 0.2 at top) is straight and splays before beginning to curve down and in (Th. 0.15 cm at bottom). Decorated on outside (from top to bottom): four horizontal orange-yellow lines, presumably continuous, of varying thickness; below them, parts of two curvilinear orange-yellow motifs, either stems or borders of medallions, which almost touch; in space between them, lemon-yellow dashes; part of indeterminate lemon-yellow motif remains inside one curved motif.Provenance
