Description
The natural polish of this red slip spouted jar shines brightly even under the softest of lights. The large ovoid body of this piece has no neck, but instead a flattened ring atop its mouth and a bent spout with a small hole for measured pouring. This suggests an efficiency commonly found throughout the arid regions of ancient Canaan, when water and wine were too important for the casual spill.
