The vessel has a molded face on the neck with modeled and incised details including ears, eyes, nose, and mouth. There are modeled arms in relief on the body. The vessel is painted with zigzags around the body in red, white, and gray? The details of the face are also painted in red, white, and gray. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior.
