Body has a flat rim, same shape and size as lid so they sit together, but with a central circular opening. Thin neck leading to shoulders. Four oblong feet at each 'corner' and the base between is flat. Flat rim on top of body is reserved. The inside is a cylindrical well, not matching the contours or shape of the outside. Heavy object.
E.62.48 The fragment is wider at the top than the bottom and there is a cylindrical hole that goes right through the object.
E.65.11 Not perfectly round but still circular. Widest from side to side. Has a rectangular extension at base so that the object would have sat in the handle. Flat and thin with slightly sloped edges to avoid making them sharp.
L.2016.3.14 Female dancer, slightly turned to her left in a likewise slight step position. Her right arm slopes down, her left arm is raised and she is looking to her left hand, which is bent backwards. A hole in mentioned hand gives rise to the suspicion that she is holding an (missing) object. There is another hole at her left heel.
