Description

A globular two-handled jar with a narrow neck and a flaring rim, photographed head-on against a plain light background. Its dark surface shows lighter patches of wear and pale flecks, and the rim is chipped, most noticeably on the right, with a small broken stub on the neck. Two loop handles rise from the shoulder, and the jar stands on a low rounded foot.
