Three-legged, cylindrical vessel with a domed base and slightly concave wall. The solid feet have sculptural decorations. The object has been smoothed, sanded and primed on both sides. Its exterior is painted. The primer and paint are partially eroded. There are fractures on the rim. The pottery has a red-orange base colour, which is painted white-yellow on the outside of the vessel. The wall is decorated with a circumferential frieze bordered by two horizontal bands. It consists of three square sectors separated by vertical bands. The pictorial fields show a rhombus whose corners are decorated with short outer lines. The feet of the object represent zoomorphic heads. The interior of the object remains undecorated. According to Lothrop 1926: withe line ware, large jars. Cultural significance: only a few polychrome ceramics appear in the ceramic system of the Central Highlands of Costa Rica. Their position is largely replaced by groups with monochrome or bicolour decoration. The central motif of the object also appears in an expanded form in the Irazú Línea Amarilla group (1550-1000d.C.). (Künne 2004)
