Description

A round-bodied jar with a short, flaring neck and a wide rim stands upright against a black background. Two small lugs sit on the shoulder, one near the centre and one at the right. The pale grey-brown surface is mottled with lighter patches, with cracks and chipping along the lower body, and a blue-white strip runs along the base.
