Description

Ceramic vessels are arranged in four rows against a pale backdrop. The top row holds six tall two-handled jars, one with a lid and a dark band, and the others with pointed or footed bases; some are cracked. The lower rows contain small jugs, cups, footed dishes and shallow bowls, and a large broken vessel stands in the centre of the middle row.
