A reddish-brown ceramic vessel features a body tapering from a sharp, angled ridge down to a flat base. Above the ridge, the exterior curves inward to a thick rim. Incised geometric patterns of horizontal parallel lines and triangular indentations wrap the vessel, partitioned by vertical bands of lines. A single, pointed protrusion juts from the ridge on the right, while small chips mar the rim.
