Its distinguishing features include its conoidal form, which resulted from the use of the coil method of vessel construction, and the use of an alternately-toothed implement (leaving what are referred to as "pseudo-scallop shell" impressions) or dentate stamp to decorate the exterior surface.
Ses traits caractéristiques comprennent sa forme conique qui découle de l'usage de la technique de construction au colombin, et de l'usage d'un instrument alternativement cranté (qui a laissé des impressions aussi appelées "pseudo-scallop shell" ou pseudo coquille de pétoncle) ou des impressions de peigne pour décorer la surface extérieure.
