Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall, narrow neck and a single strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim, shown against a plain pale background. The smooth surface has pale painted decoration: a row of dots below the neck, a concentric circle motif on the left side, and a pale figure on the shoulder that is hard to identify. Dark spots and scratches mark the body, and the base is a short, plain foot.
