Description

A jug with a wide flat rim, a short cylindrical neck with a raised band, and a strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. The globular body narrows to a short ring foot, and the mottled grey-brown surface shows pale patches of wear. It stands upright on a pale surface, and the photograph is mounted on a card with handwritten marks below.
