Description

A single jug stands upright on a pale surface against a light grey backdrop. It has a wide flared rim, a short neck with a ridge at its base, one strap handle running from the neck to the shoulder, and a rounded body narrowing to a ring base. The rough, pitted surface shows small dark inclusions, and no painted decoration is visible in this view.
