Decoration Upper part possesses a unique pattern that could be intended to mimic a type of plant, consisting of a single white dot in the centre with six triangular shapes surrounding it, each with a white spot upon them, and a white line on each of their ends; both above and below this pattern are two straight lines, brown of colour. At the bottom is another unique pattern consisting of three white dots above what could be a type of pot drawing, with several straight lines upon it. Both these unique decorations are likely part of a larger pattern upon the original artefact's exterior.
