The shallow rim and symmetrical handles are black and there are geometric floral and swirling designs on the neck and body of the vessel. There is a central figure who is nude and wrestling a lion, two figures stand to either, one is nude and reaches towards the lion while the other wears a tall helmet, clothing with geometric designs on it, and a shield. There are curling floral designs around the figures and black shapes above them, though it is unclear if they are flora or fauna.
