Description

A tall pottery vessel with a flaring rim, two loop handles and a modelled lug on one side stands upright against a pale background. Dark painted wavy lines cover the upper body, with horizontal bands below and a darker, smoothed lower section. A number label is painted on the lower body, and the print is mounted on a card with handwritten notes along the bottom edge.
