Description

A single pottery jug with a tall neck, rounded body and a strap handle on the left, photographed on a plain surface against a pale backdrop. Dark painted bands encircle the shoulder and body, with cross-hatched panels, a diagonal band of chequered pattern and a star-like motif on the neck. The surface shows wear and small chips, and the rim is slightly uneven.
