Description

A tall pottery vessel with a flaring rim, loop handle and footed base stands against a plain grey backdrop, with a modelled standing figure on the shoulder holding a small jug. A painted bird with spread wing sits on the upper body, and bands of painted fish run between white stripes on the lower body. A number is painted on the body, and a printed label is on the card mount below.
