Description

A two-handled jar with a wide, rounded body tapering to a narrow base and a short flaring neck. Two loop handles rise from the shoulder to the rim, and the mottled surface shows dark speckles and staining with faint horizontal throwing marks on the body. The vessel stands alone on a pale backdrop, and the print is mounted on a card with a number label at the bottom edge.
