Reddish clay.NM Ant 0210, Gift from the Swedish and Norwegian Consul in Smyrna, Mr. F. W. Spiegelthal to the National Museum, Stockholm, in 1870., Urval Galleriet., An alabastron (pl. alabastra) is a long-bodied vessel, typically with a rounded bottom. It is usually without a handle, although some examples have short handles (or eyes or lugs) through which a string could be attached. The name is derived from alabaster, the white-ground stone that the earliest examples were carved from. They seem to primarily have been a vessel for perfumed oil, as indicated by scenes on vases depicting it being used by women after bathing., Rim missing. Body chipped.
