The punctations may be underlined with an incised line.
Known vessel forms include globular bowls with flared orifices, flattened-globular bowls, short-collared jars, and jars with cambered rims.
Rims are direct or incurving, are slightly thickened near the margin, and thin, flat exterior folds are common.
