45.6.26 Black gloss covers the entire surface, except for the underside. The underside preserves two painted black concentric bands. The inner band is thicker and the painte has not been applied with care.
50.12.48 Single fragment preserves the cylindrical torso of a 'phi' or 'psi' figurine (probably the latter), with red-brown painted lines running vertically down its edge.
E.63.13B Fragment preserves part of the lip and also the base of what was a shallow bowl. There is is a darker blue curved line following the angle of the bowl suggesting that there was a decoration at the bottom of the bowl. The piece comes from a spoilt lot from the lower levels of the city, which is suggested by the extra thick layer of glaze that is present on the lip.
