Description

A pottery jug with a narrow neck, rounded body and short footed base, shown upright against a plain pale background. A strap handle rises from the rim to the shoulder, where a small knob sits beside it. Dark painted bands encircle the shoulder and body, with a wavy painted motif on the neck, and the surface is worn in places; a card label with handwritten numbers lies at the lower left.
