On the other side the heads of two standing women remain, behind whom are plants, a tree or a bush. Only one handle is present and the lower body is almost completely gone, together with the base. Around the neck of the vase is a band of four cartouches with the Throne Name and the Birth Name of the Egyptian king Apries of the Saite dynasty.
