Description

A single jug with a strap handle rising from the rim to the shoulder, a tall flaring neck and an elongated ovoid body narrowing to a ring foot. The surface is grey-brown with mottled darker patches, fine crazing and faint horizontal marks on the lower body. The vessel stands alone on a pale backdrop, and the photograph is mounted on a cream card with a border and a printed label along the bottom edge.
