Description

A round-bodied jug with a narrow neck, a flared rim and a single strap handle rising from the rim to the shoulder. The unglazed surface is grey-brown with faint horizontal marks on the body and a dark, worn patch near the base. The jug stands alone against a pale backdrop, and the print is mounted on a card with handwritten number labels along the bottom edge.
