Remarks

This is a jug sherd of a vessel perhaps similar to Karapetyan plate 18.1. It has black polished surfaces and thin walls, suggesting a fine serving jug. The curvature of the sherd suggests the possibility that the rim is pinched, like an oinochoi, but hard to say... For now, can be assigned to type 26.
