Three non-joining wall fragments of stand, a with bottom of lebes. Stand pierced (hole in a and c). Torus between lebes and stand. Much of the glaze fired brownish; flaked in many places; abraded on torus. P.H. a) 0.023, b) 0.151, c) 0.13.

Fragment a preserves some of the rays at the bottom of the lebes, then the three bands of ornament at the top of the stand (egg and dart, double lotus-palmette chain, a laurel wreath to right with berries) and the upper part of the figured decoration. What remains is the wreathed and filleted head of a bearded man to left, the fillet overlapping the wreath. Above his head:

In front of him:

The front edge of Skeparnos' wreath appears at the far left just at the break. Fragment b shows the wreathed and filleted head (slightly bent) and shoulders of a youth to right, a chlamys fastened on his right shoulder, a petasos hanging down his back. In his left hand he holds two spears (there are three heads, one of them in black glaze). He faces a woman (now missing) who holds a phiale in her right hand, the vessel and hand overlapping the shaft of a Doric column (part of its capital appears above to the left of the break). Behind the youth is an olive tree with fruit. Above, part of the laurel wreath and the leaf of a lotus. Fragment c (not illustrated) gives more of the pattern above the figures. Dilute glaze: hair. Added clay: dots (berries) of wreaths; fillet.
