Description

A rounded jug with a tall flaring neck and a single strap handle at the right, photographed straight on against a plain background. Two small modelled figures sit on the shoulder by the neck, with a spout-like projection at the left, and several dark horizontal bands are painted around the body. The lower body is broken and partly reassembled from fragments above a footed base.
