Spherical clay jug with a short neck. The rim of the opening is splayed outwards. Below the neck and on the entire lower section there is an intricate pattern of closely arranged, small square indentations resembling woven hessian. A white band with a carved zigzag pattern runs around the circumference of the pot in the middle. Five burls have been added to the upper ornamental band below the neck.
