Trunk-cone shape. H: 24.2cm; internal diameter at the rim: 8.2cm; internal diameter at the bottom: 11.2 cm; capacity: c. 2l. Ceramic vessel with lid. Both of greysh paste soapstone. The vessel was partially destroyed t the moment of discovery. It features a handle with a quadrangular section and, in the opposite position, a torch with a quadrangular section as well. A cylindrical hole for pouring liquids, most likely made with a drill, crosses both of them. The shape appears to be decidedly more complex than the soapstone products normally in circulation, both due to the rim, which is narrower than the bottom, and the presence of the handle and the spout. The lid has a functional apical knob for a comfortable grip, an interlocking tooth, and a hollow interior. The truncated cone walls, projecting from the width of the mouth, create a greater support surface, useful for better closing of the container. The lid is finely turned on the lathe and smooth, especially in correspondence with the internal surface and the knob, which retains light streaks in some places due to its careful finishing; the external surface, on the other hand, features a graduated process, obtained thanks to the use of a flat-tipped chisel during the turning phase.
