Description

Three wooden shelves hold about twenty pottery vessels against a dark draped cloth. The top two shelves carry jugs and juglets with long necks, loop handles, spouts and painted geometric bands. The lowest shelf holds four larger vessels: a wide bowl with lug handles and painted bands, a single-handled jug, a two-handled jar with painted bands, and a dark round vessel, some standing on wire supports.
