CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION A tall vessel with an oval, almost bag-like body, a somewhat elongated neck with an everted rim and a pair of narrow curving handles that spring from the oblique shoulder to the neck. The lower portion of the vessel splits into two legs with well-modeled feet. Details such as ankle bones and the arch of each foot are rendered by modeled forms rather than incised lines. The overall effect is that of a wine- or waterskin rather than a ceramic vessel. It is likely that this association was intentional- as the light porous ceramic body of the vessel allows water to evaporate slowly through the sides, thus slightly cooling the remaining contents.

My wicked little Cyn is looking more and more like a classic little lady in this fancy dress. And then I put the top hat on her and I'm like OMG I need to make her a pretty fascinator for this frou frou of hair she's got. LOL
Also, I think she needs some new clothes... I've been neglecting her lately; making way for the new dolls and whatnot. My evil child needs new duds. Like now. :D
