Description

A one-handled jug with a rounded body, a flaring pinched mouth and a tall strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. Dark painted horizontal bands run around the upper body, and the surface is worn and slightly pitted. The vessel stands on a thin wire stand against a plain grey background, and the print sits on a pale card mount with a small number label in the corner.
