Description

A round-bodied jug with a wide mouth and thickened rim, a tall narrow neck and a single strap handle rising from the rim to the shoulder. Two incised lines run in a curve around the upper body, and the matt, slightly rough surface shows small dark specks. The jug stands on a pale surface and fills most of the frame.
