Small bowl or cup with everted rim. Buff fabric. Small ridge runs along the top of the shoulder of the vessel. Thick purple-black band on exterior of rim; the band does not run evenly. On body, two parallel wavy lines with evidence of a third straight line below. On the interior there is a thick band below rim, at neck. Smoothed on exterior and interior.
