Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall neck, a flared rim and a single loop handle rising from the shoulder to the neck on the left. A band of small impressed marks runs around the neck below a ridge, and the surface looks worn and pitted. The jug stands on a pale surface against a light backdrop, and the photograph is mounted on a card with a border.
