This intact pear-shaped terracotta flask is reddish-orange colored. The mouth has a flat lip with a slight chip on the back edge. The body is tall and widens toward the bottom, where it narrows to a circular, straight-walled base. The body’s surface is smooth with two applied decorations, on the left a wheat spike and on the right a boy seen in profile. He has curly, short hair and holds a long indeterminate object. On the left side of the flask there is an ear-shaped handle with a rope design surface.
