Description

A globular jug with a tall neck that flares to a broad spout with a broken edge, and a strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. It stands on a flat ring base against a pale plain background. The surface is worn and mottled with light patches, and faint bands run around the neck; painted decoration is hard to make out.
