Stove fired in an oxidising atmosphere, with a reddish fabric and fine inclusions. It has a globular body, neck with convergent-divergent walls and a rounded lip. The base is flat and has three solid feet. It has two tape handles. In the area of the shoulder there are three triangular oxygenation holes.
