Single-levelled, open-hulled ship to the left. Low flat hull, massive triangular bow with concave stempost integrating a thick bow projection and ending in a short protrusion slightly inclined forward. The bow screen has a short spike and a small eye comprised of a reserved circle with a dot inside (fish eye type). The four tholepins are placed on a rail above the gunwale supported by stanchions, with which they are not aligned but placed midway between struts.

The bow morphology is remarkably similar to the Toronto bowl and another Attic LG II vase, including the massive ram, tiny occulus and short stempost extremity pointing slightly forward. The fact that the tholepins are not aligned with the stanchions deviates from the norm.
