DescriptionSquat, ovoid, buff-colored stoneware jug with an inverted cone rim, short neck, ovoid body, and flat bottom. A pulled, strap handle connects the rim with the shoulder. The jug is coated all over the interior and exterior with a glossy, solid reddish-brown glaze. There are some irregularities in the glaze, at the rim where the glaze is interrupted, on the handle where the glaze takes on a green tint in some areas, and on the shoulder opposite the handle, where the glaze also has a greenish tint. There are light scratches in the glaze on the body of the jug, especially on the lower half.
