Hand made from a coarse clay and baked in an open fire to harden. A large and impressive example, a rare and seldom offered Neolithic / Bronze Age domestic artefact, a few old minor peripheral knocks otherwise totally intact and in very good condition with stable surfaces, 58mm diameter x 36mm high.
