Description

''Tea-pot'' or spouted vase typical of the Classic Kerma period, found in a tomb of the northern necropolis at Sai: small flat bottom, pear-shaped body, wavy shoulder, unrestricted mouth and thinned lip. The vase is red with a glossy black border and the well-known irregular white band. There are visible wear marks, which proves that the vessel was used before it was placed in the tomb.

"Tea-pot" ou vase à bec caractéristique du Kerma Classique, découvert dans une tombe de la nécropole nord de Sai: petit fond plat, panse piriforme, épaule ondulée, ouverture évasée avec lèvre effilée. Le vase est rouge à bord noir lustré, et avec la bande blanche irrégulière, bien connue. Il présente des traces d'usure qui prouvent qu'il a été utilisé avant son dépôt dans la sépulture.
