AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Painted-decorated ceramic jug dating to the Bronze Age. Jug with a broad belly resting on a flat base, adorned with geometric decoration painted with alternating circular bands and grid patterns. This small jug features a stout body resting on a flat base, a long and straight neck, and a large vertical handle with a rounded section. Its irregular shapes suggest it was made without the use of a potter's wheel. Ceramic covered with a beige engobe, lustrous glaze, and painted in black with geometric motifs across its surface. Height 19.2 cm – diameter 15.1 cm. Very good state of preservation – slight restoration. Good preservation of pigments, the decoration is still perfectly visible.
Provenance: Germany, R.T.B. Gallery.
