Description by Michael Welch:  #18 One-third handle with a medium amount of jar pottery remaining on the bottom.  Pottery shows potter's wheelmarks and one or two smudged fingerprints.  Pottery color is dark chocolate brownish black, with a black core and white grits throughout.  A few chipped areas show red-brick color showing through.  Bears a H2D type impression.  Out of LMLK on the top, part of the Mem, most of the second Lamed, and most of the Kaph remain.  Out of HBRN on the bottom, most all of the Resh and Nun remain.  About two-thirds of the two-winged emblem remains.  An old black ink #32 from a previous collection remains on the bottom.
