Comments

This milk pan has a wide spout formed in the rim.  The rim is flat across the top and varies in height from 4 to 4-12 inches.  It also varies across the diameter of the bowl.  The outside of the pan has row of six three-leaf clusters and an incised line running through them.  The inside of the bowl has a reddish tint.

This milk pan is slightly larger and more carefully decorated than another from the same source, accession no. 1977.548.
