Description

A two-handled jar with a flared rim and narrow neck stands on a low ring foot against a plain light background. Several thin horizontal bands circle the neck, and a zone of angular motifs with dotted fill sits on the upper body. Below it, a broad band of horizontal lines wraps the rounded body, and two small loop handles rise from the shoulders. The surface is slightly worn, with some dark marks on the lower body.
