The shoulder is decorated with a band of tongues either side of a convex band of guilloche, whilst the walls of the lower body are fluted. Another smaller band of guilloche encircles the lower body just above the low foot, and the underside is decorated with a sixteen petalled rosette with alternating plain and scale-pattern petals. The shape is the forerunner of the Achaemenid deep bowls with tall flaring rims that become popular in the later Greek world. For an identical bowl in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, catalogued as Iranian, early 1st millennium B.C., acquired in 1950, see acc. no: 50.142.
