Description

A globular jug with a short flaring neck and a single strap handle rising from shoulder to rim, photographed against a plain grey backdrop. Its pale surface is decorated with dark painted concentric circles, a broad banded ring encircling the body and a large circle with a concentric centre on the right side. The rim is chipped at one point, but the vessel appears otherwise intact.
