Description

A large, round-bodied jar with a short neck and two loop handles on the shoulder stands on a narrow ring base. Its dark surface carries light painted bands near the rim and a row of pointed, drop-shaped motifs outlined in dark paint below the shoulder. The surface is chipped and cracked, with a crack running across the lower body.
