About MeEarthenware round bellied jug with prominent shoulders, collared neck and everted rim. Angular handle springing from shoulder to neck. Quite roughly potted with uneven rim and base.Partially glazed in a mustard slip - mainly opposite the handle. Most of the glaze is missing, or possibly was never applied.
The jug has no maker's mark and the maker is unidentified.
