22.3.36 The exterior possesses several images of what appear to be flower like decorations, consisting of a large white spot with eight slightly smaller white dots scattered around them. These flowers are in alignment and stretch across the middle section of the object. Beneath these flowers are a series of smaller dots that form a line stretching from one side of the artefact to the other. The interior of the object possesses countless lines connecting one part of the pot to the other, and vary in shades of brown.
26.4.2 The rim on the outside has a thick black band round it, which stops at the top of the handles. On both sides of the handle, the same images are repeated, showing the figure of a bird in between two palmettes with stems ending in a curling ventril with a pendant pointing down towards the foot. Beneath each handle is an ivy leaf with a curled stem. Below these images, is a thin black band, and then a thick one that also encompasses the top side of the foot. The edge of the foot is grooved and reserved, as is the outer rim of the base of the foot. On the base of the foot, there is a well approx 3.8cm wide and 1.5cm deep. The inside of this well and a rim around the edge is fired black, but is mostly red. The inside of the Kylix shows a thin black band that has been extended from the outside. Then there is a thin reserved band, the rest of the inside entirely glazed, except for a small reserved circle in the centre.
