Description

Four large two-handled vessels stand on the top shelf, with about a dozen smaller jugs and jars on the middle shelf and footed bowls, shallow plates and small cups below. The large vessels have bands of dark painted lines, and one jar has a panel of vertical strokes. The pots are lit evenly against a pale backdrop, with a printed label strip along the bottom edge.
