Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall flared neck and a strap handle on one side stands on a pale surface against a plain background. The body carries a stylised bird in dark paint, with hatched wings and tail, long legs and a head turned to the right. A small concentric ring motif appears on the neck, and the clay surface shows fine scratches and small marks.
