Description

A single round-bodied jug with a tall neck, flared rim and one strap handle running from the rim down to the shoulder. Several thin horizontal grooves or bands encircle the shoulder and upper body, and the surface looks dark and slightly worn. The jug stands on a pale surface against a plain light background, photographed straight on and mounted on a card.
