Description: | This bottle is circular in shape with a flat base and a tall neck. A monkey has been sculpted and sits on top of the bottle with arms gripping the neck. The head of the monkey tilts to the right and the right leg is drawn upwards whereas the left is stretched out in front. Incised lines define the paws and facial features have been simply modelled. The bottle is made from pottery and is covered with red pigment, apart from the monkeys face which is white. A number of scratches cover the surface revealing the colour of the material underneath. Some discoloration has ocurred as one side of the bottle is black.
