A jar. This exceptional jar has a wide waist and narrows towards the neck which ends in a narrow flaring mouth. The thin, double walled base has bursted open. The grey coloured clay contains few impurities. There are no traces of glaze on the outside or inside. It ha possibly been covered with a glaze or a slip. The upper half of the exterior has concentric grooves neatly incised from the neck to the waist.
Schenking van de heer R. Sténuit, Brussel
