Description

The jug has a tall, flaring neck with a rounded rim, a single strap handle running from the shoulder up to the neck, and a full, egg-shaped body. Three small feet support it, and the surface is worn in patches, with lighter mottled areas over a darker ground. It stands on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop.
