Description

A single jug stands on a small ring foot against a pale background, photographed from the side. It has a flaring rim, a tall neck and a strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. The upper body carries painted triangles, cross-hatched panels and a wavy band in dark paint on a light ground, while the lower body is mostly pale with some worn and chipped areas.
