Description
Fragment of the shoulder of a jug with concentric hooks on white slip. The surviving hooks have an unusual wiggle made with the multiple brush. One of the brushes was much wider than the others. The piece was burned, so the red clay has turned to dark gray. The decoration is within a reserved panel, traces of which survive at the right and bottom edges.
Dimensions
L. 0.07, W. 0.075, Th. 0.007.
