Description

A round-bodied jar with a wide flaring rim, a short neck and two loop handles set on the shoulder. A band of cross-hatched lattice fills the upper body between the handles, with dark and pale horizontal bands below and thin lines near the base. The body narrows to a ringed foot, and the vessel stands upright on a pale surface against a plain background.
