Description

A small pottery bottle with a tall narrow neck, a single loop handle rising from the rim to the shoulder, and a rounded body that tapers to a pointed base. The pale surface shows small dark pits and some uneven patches. The vessel stands on clear supports against a plain backdrop, and the print is mounted on a card with a handwritten label along the bottom edge.
