The vessel and the epaulet were accidentally discovered in Strachowice near Legnickie Pole (Legnica district) by a private person. The discovered vessel most likely served as an ashtray. An amphora with an ovoid shape and a conical neck. The transition of the neck into the belly was emphasized by a groove. The surface of the vessel is smooth, grey-brown in color. The epaulet is decorated with groups of three semi-circular plastic ribs. Similar items are rare in the historical material.
