Description

A large two-handled jar with a narrow neck, flared rim and rounded body stands on a low foot. Dark horizontal bands run across the shoulder and lower body, and between the handles pale panels carry dark spiral motifs with trailing strokes. It is photographed alone, straight on, against a plain pale backdrop, mounted on a card with a printed number in the bottom corner.
