The decorative panel is framed above by a band of unenclosed tongues, and at the sides by a net pattern bordered by two black lines on the inside and one on the outside. The lower frame of the panel is formed by a pair of red lines that encircle the vase.

The jug has a trefoil mouth, with a red line on the edge. The round handle is fully glazed, and rises above the level of the lip. There is a slight ridge at the join of the neck and shoulder, accentuated by a red line. The torus foot is glazed on the topside, with a red line on the edge. The outer edge and underside are reserved.
