kan met draagbeugel en vaas
Explanation:
rater - A Greek bowl with a wide mouth, two handles and a foot. Kraters were vessels used for mixing wine with water at special meals called banquets or symposia. Kraters were often decorated with scenes of couples dining or relaxing; the scenes on them paralleled those occasions when kraters were actually used.

Sometimes spelled crater, and sometimes called a vase.
