Description

A tall two-handled jar with a flaring rim, a narrow neck and a rounded body on a low foot. The neck carries dark concentric circles and horizontal bands, the shoulder has panels of hatching and dark marks between the handles, and the body is banded with horizontal stripes. The jar stands on a pale surface against a light backdrop, and the surface shows some wear and fine scratches.
