Description

A two-handled jar stands upright on a pale surface against a plain backdrop, shown in a single side view. Its tall neck and shoulder carry rows of dark concentric circles, and the rounded body is banded with horizontal dark lines and wider bands. Loop handles rise from the shoulder to the rim, and the photograph is mounted on a light card with a border.
