Description

A painted jug with a tall neck, flaring rim and single strap handle running from rim to shoulder. Its pale surface carries dark horizontal bands on the body and neck, with a wavy line and pendant motifs above the widest part. Some flaking shows on the body, and the vessel stands on a ring base on a plain floor against a grey backdrop, with a card border around the print.
