Description

A round-bodied juglet with a tall narrow neck, a single loop handle rising from the shoulder to the rim, and a pinched spout at the top. Several dark horizontal bands encircle the upper and lower body, separated by pale unpainted zones, and the surface shows small chips and wear. The vessel stands on a short, slightly flared foot against a plain pale background.
