A tubular neck ointment much longer than the tank, which is slightly bell shaped. Flat base and hollowed-out mouth with thickened lip. Light greenish tones.
The main use of the ointments was as containers for perfume and essences. Many had a dispenser, since the perfumes had very high prices only accessible to the wealthy classes. They also fulfilled another function, that of being part of the grave goods, both for males and females.
