Description

Two pottery jugs stand side by side on a plain pale backdrop, each with a rounded body, a tall neck with a pinched spout and a loop handle. Dark bands encircle the shoulders, and a large dark disc with concentric rings sits at the centre of each body, with smaller ring motifs around it. The right jug is cracked, with visible lines of breakage across its body and neck.
