Coffee pot with a cylindrical form. The coffee pot's form flares out abruptly and then tapers toward the base. The body's exterior is decorated with plain, impressed bands and is matte black. The pot's handle is rounded and is at an angle to the body of the pot. The pot's spout is wide at its base and decreases in size. The lip of the pot extends inward then drops and extends again, for the missing cover to rest on.
