Notes:

Rim broken away from vessel, but was outsplayed originally. Below neck constriction, vessel broadens into squat bulbous shape. Mould-blown busts, one pair on opposite sides, located at widest part of body. They represent probably females with drapery over breasts. Base is lozenge-shaped with pontil mark and offset ridge where mould was not tight. Projecting ridge extends up opposite sides of vessel, due also to loose fitting mould. Bubbly, dirt-stained, and stress cracking.
