DescriptionAn Amphora vase with three legs, each one decorated with a brown design that resembles a bear flexing its arms. Above each leg is the face of man with full facial hair and a wide nose. He seems to wear a purple-blue turban that loops under his chin to hang around his neck in folds. A tall plant with sea green leaves and small pink flowers separated the three men. The opening of the vase is circular and lined with small blue flowers.
