Shallow basin on broadly flaring ring foot; flat-topped rim with deep vertical face. Heavy fabric; glaze on top of rim, on handles and on foot; thin inside.
For practical purposes a shallow tub rather than a lekane; on another unusually broad-based example from the Acropolis North Slope, Athens, Agora Museum, A-P 2424: Hesperia, IX, 1940, p. 251, fig. 54, 325, the shape of the body is nearer the normal. For the shallow proportions see Leningrad 0.1914, III from Olbia: Otchët, 1913-15(1918), pp. 29-30, figs. 23-24.
