Description

A single pottery vessel stands on a low pedestal foot against a draped grey backdrop. It has a wide flat-topped mouth above a ridged neck, a rounded body, a small loop handle on one side and a tall strap handle rising from the rim to the shoulder. The mottled surface shows pale patches and wear, and the photograph is mounted on a grey card.
