Neck fragment: maenad and satyr. On the right is preserved the balding head of a satyr facing left. Before him, in the center, remains the upper edge of an object, possibly a krotalon or a drinking horn. On the left, is preserved the back of the head of a maenad facing left, in front of the satyr. Both figures have wreaths around their heads. It is not clear whether the satyr pursues the maenad.
