Description: | Complete, black glaze, no decoration., The pelike is similar to the amphora, with two handles, a narrow neck and a sagging belly which would have cointained liquids such as oil or wine. This example has a black body and interior to the lower shoulder. It has a rounded lip to the rim, two handles which join at the neck and return just above the widest point. The body curves very slightly towards the base. On the underside 'B+' is written in pencil and 'A232. 5??3' in faded black ink. The paintwork is chipped throughout and notably under the rim, around the handle insertions and on the base. One of the handles has a small holebeside it.,
