Description

A single jug with a rounded body, a short neck that flares out to a wide mouth, and one strap handle rising from the rim down to the shoulder. The rough, pitted surface shows pale and dark patches, and the rim has a small chip. The jug stands on a pale surface, lit from the side, with a plain grey background behind it.
