Description

A jug with a tall strap handle, a flaring rim and a rounded body stands on a low foot. The neck carries bands of triangles, rectangles and cross-hatched panels in dark paint on a light ground, and the shoulder has a wavy motif. Cracks run across the lower body, and the vessel is photographed alone on a pale surface.
