The Global Egyptian Museum

Globular bottle with a short neck and an unstable base with  convex bottom. Orangey-coloured paste with different tones due to imperfect firing. The upper half of the vase bears decoration. Beneath the rim is a horizontal band with gutiform motifs in alternate colours. Below this is a narrow band divided into metopae by means of vertical strips with zigzag motifs of parallel lines. In the interior of the metopae painted faces of 'demons' appear. Their facial features are highly marked, with the exception of the mouth. The colours wine-red and orangey have been used alternately.
