Description

A large two-handled jar with a flared neck and rounded body is photographed against a plain pale backdrop. The shoulder carries four dark concentric circles in a row, with a band of drop-like motifs below the rim and horizontal painted bands around the lower body. The surface shows some chipping and lighter patches, and the handles are broken or worn at their edges.
