Description

A round-bodied jug with a short, flared neck and a raised ridge at the base of the neck. A single loop handle rises from the rim to the shoulder. The matt surface shows small pits and marks, and the jug stands on a pale surface with a soft shadow beneath it, against a plain grey backdrop.
