45.6.35 Complete and intact. Black glaze only on neck lip and handle, completely worn away on the rest of the vessel. Chipped around rim.
47.2.4 Part of the rim and upper body has been chipped off. The one of the handles has been rejoined to the body and so is the one of the two springs of the other handle. The rest of the second handle is missing. The gloss is greenish and streaky at some areas. There are deposits, especially on the area above the foot and on the base. Some remains of adhesives? at the one handle.
47.6.2A-B About two thirds of the top rim of the lid are missing, while one third of its side surface has been reconstructed. The rest of the lid has been repaired through the joining of three fragments; the figural scene has faded. The body is almost intact, only a small bit has been chipped off from the rim, three tiny bits have been pitted off and a small part of it has been reconstructed. The rim of the base also has some pitted off parts.
78.12.17 Intact, small chip on rim, blackening at the end of the wick rest, probably from use. Large amount of white deposit all over.
78.12.18 Intact, a few chips around outside of rim, scratches on inside and underside. Base roughened. Small amount of black at the end of the wick rest, white deposit in places. Two small holes, one on the underside of the rim, the other on the base. Unglazed.
E.23.38 Intact, it is clear from the top and bottom part of the artefact that it has been removed from a larger object, since they appear to be thinner than the rest of the object and therefore look like 'connectors' of some kind. There appears to be very little degradation of the wood. There are some remnants of a white pigment on the lower half.
