Description

Six handled jugs stand in a row on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop, graded from the largest on the left to the smallest on the right. Each has a rounded body, a narrow neck and a single loop handle; the surfaces are smooth and grey-brown, and some necks have flared or broken rims. The photograph is a close, straight-on view with the jugs lit from the upper left.
