The rounded motifs are made up of inverted, coloured shapes and negative recesses. The frieze is bordered by all-round black lines. There are two horizontal red bands at the base and below the edge. The interior of the object remains undecorated. According to Lothrop 1926: Nicoya polychrome ware, interlocking step scroll.
