Tall narrow tube, swelling gradually towards the base and then curving quickly into a low foot : the lip is flat and wide and below it, separated by a narrow ridge, are two small handles.
Note :
Their baggy shape has been thought to derive from Egyptian bronze vases and some of the motifs in their decoration - such as a hawk seated on the Neb-basket on one fragment - are purely Egyptian.
