No. 360 represents a pretty lustrous-red pear-shaped oenoclwe, with along upright neck and trefoil mouth, joined by a long handle to the body,on which we see small handles to the right and left: round the lowerpart of the neck we discern three bands in relief; the bottom is to this is the pear-shaped red oenochoe, No. 361, which has onlyone handle.
