Description

A single jug with a rounded body, a tall neck and a flared, pinched rim, photographed against a pale backdrop with a soft shadow beneath it. A single loop handle rises from the shoulder to the rim, and the dark surface carries several thin horizontal bands around the neck and body. The photograph is mounted on a card with a border, and part of a handwritten note shows along the lower edge.
