TWO OPTIONS HERE, you can smash the amphora yourself or give it to Tiferet.

Basim set the amphora down, unbarred the front door, grabbed the jar again, and walked back to Tiferet. He handed it to her and was surprised when she turned around and threw the jar at the collapsed wall behind them, shattering the artwork to pieces.

Basim approached a woman attempting to enter a sunken house.
Dialogue
While passing through the northern town of Ukbara, Basim heard a woman shouting outside a partially-sunken house.
Tiferet:Open up, you stupid door!
Basim approached her.
Tiferet:What are you gawking at?
Basim:You sound like someone in need of help.
Tiferet:I will take it when I can.
Basim:Then I shall offer it. What is the problem?
Tiferet:This house belonged to my mother before she passed away. It holds an object of great value. A treasure you might say.
Basim:A treasure?
Tiferet:Hah! Suddenly he's all years.
Basim:Treasure intrigues me, but it does not rule my heart. Nor my ears.
Tiferet:Anyway, unless I find a way inside, the treasure is lost forever.
Basim:As a child I was quite the treasure hunter. Now is as good a time as any to renew that interest.
Tiferet:For a fee? So be it. After the job is complete.
Basim:Where exactly will I find this treasure?
Tiferet:My mother, a potter by trade, hid it inside a blue lusterware amphora.
Basim:Lusterware? That is a treasure in itself.
Tiferet:After her death, my grief was great, and I could not bring myself to enter the house and claim my birthright. Now I return only to find the place has sunk... Please, bring me what is mine.
Basim:Your birthright shall be restored.
Thinking Tiferet may have some additional information, he talked to her again.
Tiferet:Have you found the amphora yet?
With Tiferet clearly impatient, Basim dove underwater and swam through an opening in the house's wall. A ceiling beam collapsed while he was midway through a hall but he avoided it.
Basim:Hopefully the damp has not damaged the treasure.
He emerged inside the house's moldy interior and saw a blue amphora behind a large collection of clay jars. He leapt over the clay jars, picked up the lusterware, and carried it away from the the other pottery.
Basim:Here is the amphora... No way to open it other than to break it. Whatever it contains must be of great value.
Basim set the amphora down, unbarred the front door, grabbed the jar again, and walked back to Tiferet. He handed it to her and was surprised when she turned around and threw the jar at the collapsed wall behind them, shattering the artwork to pieces.
Basim:So much for your mother's fine work.
He searched among the ceramic fragments and found a fist-sized rock.
Basim:And since when was a lump of copper considered a great treasure?
Tiferet:Your ignorance betrays you. With this copper I will make a hundred lusterware vases. Now, here is your fee. And a little extra for not running off with my treasure when you had the chance.
Basim threw the amphora on the ground, breaking it to reveal a lump of copper had been hidden inside. Palming it, he unbarred the front door and walked back to Tiferet, who immediately noticed he did not have the jar but held something in his hands.
Tiferet:Ha, was it greed or clumsiness that led you to breaking the amphora?
Basim:If I had not broken it, you would have. There was no other way to open it. And besides, since when was a lump of copper considered to be a great treasure?
Tiferet:Your ignorance betrays you. With this copper I will make a hundred lusterware vases. Now, here is your fee. Minus a small forfeiture for breaking my mother's amphora. It held sentimental value, you know.
Outcome
Basim entered the house and retrieved the treasure from it.
