Description

Three wooden shelves hold about twenty small pottery jugs and juglets with long necks, handles and painted bands, dotted and lattice patterns. The bottom shelf holds three larger vessels: a covered jar on the left, a two-handled bowl in the centre with a painted animal figure, and a bowl on the right with vertical motifs and handles.
