Description

A globular jug in faience, pieced together from fragments with visible cracks and some losses. Rows of flower rosettes run around the shoulder, above a band of round knobs and a band of wave-like spirals. A blue-tinted motif sits on the side, and a loose fragment hangs at the left edge, while pointed petal shapes spread toward the base.
