Description
Ancient Near East, Holy Land, Islamic, ca. 10th to 12th century CE.

The form is defined by a wide piriform body, a flared and rolled rim, and a pair of applied trail handles, all atop a diminutive disc foot. Custom lucite display stand included. Size: 2" W x 2" H (5.1 cm x 5.1 cm); 2.4" H (6.1 cm) on included custom stand.
