Description

A single jug with a tall loop handle rising from the shoulder to a flaring rim, a globular body and a low ring foot. Dark painted bands run around the body, and the neck and shoulder carry circles, spirals and wheel-like motifs. Large areas of the body are missing and filled with pale plaster, and the vessel stands on a plain light surface against a light backdrop.
