Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall neck, flared rim and a single strap handle rising from the shoulder to the neck. The dark, slipped surface carries incised linear bands and diagonal hatched motifs across the body, and the lower body is chipped, exposing the paler fabric. The jug stands on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop.
