Description

A two-handled jar with a wide mouth, a short neck and a rounded body stands on a low ring foot. The neck carries three concentric-circle motifs above a dark band, and the shoulder and upper body have framed panels of cross-hatching. Further horizontal bands run round the lower body, and a number label sits at the right against a plain background.
