Description

A round-bodied earthenware jug stands on a plain surface, with a single loop handle rising from the shoulder to the neck and a wide, flat-topped rim. Two dark horizontal bands encircle the upper body, and the surface shows small pits, worn patches and light flaking. The vessel is shown in a three-quarter view against a pale backdrop.
