Description

A jug with a rounded body, a short flared neck and a wide mouth, photographed on a three-legged wire stand against a plain backdrop. One handle on the right side is broken to a stub, and a small broken projection sits on the left shoulder. The surface is worn and mottled with darker and lighter patches, with fine cracks across the body.
