Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall, slightly flaring neck and a single loop handle rising from the rim to the shoulder. Its dark, polished surface carries pale incised decoration: a zigzag band with hatched infill on the neck and several horizontal bands of short strokes around the body. The jug stands on a flat base against a plain pale background, photographed in a straight side view.
