Description

A tall pottery vessel with a flared rim, narrow neck and ring base stands against a plain grey backdrop. Dark horizontal bands encircle the neck and shoulder, and a row of four concentric circles sits on the body between further bands. Two handles curve from the shoulder to the upper body, and the pale surface shows small pits and wear.
