Description

A spherical cauldron with a turned-out rim is mounted on a truncated conical base. Vertical handles in the form of loops are located on four sides, cast in the shape of animals. Two of them are stylized figures of horses, seemingly directed inward toward the cauldron; the ears, mane, and tail are meticulously rendered. The other two handles are made in the form of stylized figures of saiga antelopes, evident by their prominent foreheads and short tails.
