Description

A large two-handled storage jar with a narrow neck, a rounded body tapering to a pointed base with a small foot. The surface is buff-grey and rough, with some chipping and flaking around the rim and handles. A paper number label sits at the lower left of the frame, and the vessel stands on a plain floor against a pale backdrop.
