272 ITALIAN AND ETRUSCAN POTTERY.
Flat broad looped handle, at right angles to spout ; on the side opposite the
latter the head of an animal (broken) projects vertically ; it has a pellet each side
for the eyes, and round the neck a moulded ring (cf. op fit. p. 195). Reddish
clay with buff slip ; dull black and dark red paint.
On the handle are vertical bands (red between two black) with two cross-
bars of black at the upper end ; the inside of the spout is red ; the animal's
head black with red neck. Round the upper part of the body are black and red
bands ; below, in front, a panel with red and black bands enclosing a triangular
design in black. On the under side of the spout are red triangles enclosed by
black ones, with a vertical, zigzag line between ; on each side of the handle,
vertical stripes of black and red ; on the base two intersecting lines in a circle,
all black.

lines, four narrow between two thick in each ; (3) band of maeander composed
of lattice-pattern in purple, with plain black squares in the spaces ; (4) the
pattern in (2) repeated twice, with black and purple rings between and below.
Underneath the foot a circle with two diameters intersecting at right angles,
surrounded by eight radiating lines at equal distances.
