Shoulder and neck fragment with ring at junction. Neck glazed on inside. Max. dim. 0.043.
Man (head with fillet, start of shoulders) to right, probably wearing a himation. Behind him, part of an uncertain object (something hanging on the wall[?]): part of it seems to be fabric; at the left of the reserve is relief line. On neck, palmettes in black glaze. Preliminary sketch. Dilute glaze (very thin): lines on object. Added clay: fillet.
The uncertain object may be some kind of fancy headdress, with the black glaze just above the break indicating hair.
