The radius of the vessel base was about 4cm, and this fragment is 15% of the base perimeter. The side wall tapers slightly outward from the base. The coarse fabric is orange with a grey core it is mica rich and contains scarce grog inclusions. There is a mottled olive green coloured splashed glaze on the outer surface of the vessel wall.
