Description

A jug with a tall loop handle rising from the shoulder to a broken, flaring rim. The narrow neck has a dark band, and the rounded body is painted with large concentric bands and many rings of concentric circles in dark paint on a pale ground. A crack runs across the lower body, and the pot stands on a low foot against a plain backdrop.
