Description

A jug with a rounded body, short neck, pinched mouth and tall loop handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. Several horizontal bands or grooves encircle the lower body, and a small ring foot supports it. A crack runs down the neck and there is surface loss near the mouth, shown against a pale studio backdrop.
