Description
Content (description)
Knobbed lid decorated with leaves. The bowl is extended at the sides into projections in place of handles. Round the bottom of the bowl runs a circle of leaves, out of which rises a floral scroll in the centre, part of which also rises from two kraters towards the sides. Two dolphins with leafy fins on their tails curve down out of the handle projections to touch the rims of the kraters.
