2004.5.1 Approximately 1/3 of the original remains (lower right corner), which has been restored with modern plaster, mostly undecorated. Where original paint remains it has been dulled and is scratched.
22.3.41 Single fragment, roughly triangular preserving most of the flat bottom and approximately 1/4 of the arc of the lower part of the body. Large crack lengthwise down the fragment. Some whitish-gray deposits on the exterior and brownish-gray deposits on the interior.
35.4.4 The handle has been repaired (rejoined with the body at its spring). There are many bits that have been pitted off from the vessel, especially at the lip and handle, as well as a scratch below the handle. Approximately one third of the vessel (lip, neck, handle and left side of almost half the body) is silvery glossy. The rest is glazed.
47.10.3A-B Lid intact and complete except for a large chip missing from the rim. Lekanis comprised of three or more rejoined pieces, rejoined with some plaster restorations, preserving one handle, most of the foot, and approximately 2/3 of the body of the bowl. The surface on both parts is somewhat worn, with whitish-gray patches, chips and scratches, and some black glaze eroded.
50.4.15 Grey deposit inside bowl. Glaze chipped in places and worn around rim and handles. Crack running around one side of bowl ending under handles intersecting mid-way with crack running to rim. Triangular chip on rim next to handle approximately 2cm on each side.
E.62.30 Intact and complete with a chip in the lip that removes approximately one-fifth of the lip. There is a large amount of deposit on the inside of the pot.
E.62.39 Intact, but a large chip is missing from the lip, approximately one quarter missing. There is a crack going from one side to the other, starting and terminating at the shoulder, it goes around the base. Very little deposit.
