Description

A round-bodied vessel with a large loop handle rising from the top, photographed against a plain grey background. The body is painted with dark bands forming a cross that divides it into four panels, each marked with a ring-shaped motif, and a concentric band runs close to the edge. The paint shows clearly against the pale surface, and a number label is printed in the lower right corner.
