Jug

Of red pottery. Beveled base, body contracting to short neck with everted lip, one high vertical loop handle. Pinnate Leaf Pattern

Narrow-necked jar/bottle with an ovate body, flaring neck, outward sloping rim, 1 strap handle on the body, and a flat base. No molded/modeled additions. The vessel is painted red with a white band around the exterior of the neck. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior and a smoothed finish on the interior. The vessel was likely fired in an oxidizing atmosphere as the ceramic paste is orange in color. The catalogue number is written on the bottom of the base and black ink on the bottom of the base reads: "2328."
