The vessel features two handles on either side, each shaped like an animal's head. The body of the vessel is rounded with a narrow base and wide mouth. It has a short foot and is decorated with intricate carvings and patterns across its surface. Two small round rivets are positioned on the front. The background of the image is grey, with the vessel casting a shadow to the right.
