Description

A large jug with a rounded body and a tall neck is lying on its side in a wooden crate. A loop handle arches over the top, and the neck ends in a wide rim pointing to the right. The surface is dark and shiny in places, with encrusted patches on the lower body, and rope is wound around it and tied at the front of the crate against a plain pale background.
