Description

A tall jug with a flared spout-like rim, a single loop handle on the right, and a narrow neck widening into a rounded body on a low foot. The neck and shoulder carry painted bands of triangles, diamonds and rectangles in pale and dark paint, and dark horizontal bands encircle the lower body. The jug stands on a plain pale surface against a plain backdrop, with mottled, worn patches on its surface.
