Description

A single-handled pottery jug stands on a pale surface against a plain light backdrop. It has a wide, flat-topped rim, a narrow neck, a rounded body tapering to a small foot, and a strap handle running from the neck to the shoulder. Dark horizontal bands circle the neck, shoulder, body and foot, and a small paper label with handwriting sits at the lower left.
