Description

A two-handled jar stands upright on a pale surface, photographed alone against a light background. The tall neck carries a band of cross-hatched and star-like motifs, and the shoulder has concentric circles and a diamond lattice between diagonal bands. The rounded body is banded with thin horizontal lines and broad dark stripes, and the surface is worn and flaking in places.
