Description

A single pottery jug with a tall, conical body that narrows to a flat base, a flaring funnel-shaped mouth and a strap handle running from the shoulder up to the rim. Horizontal painted bands encircle the lower body, and a rectangular panel with a patterned motif sits on the upper body. The vessel stands against a pale grey backdrop, and the print is mounted on a card with a border.
