Notes
A jar with obtuse edges and a four-cornered lip. Its mouth is circular and its neck is an inverted cone. The body is spherical with two fin-shaped lugs, an upper shoulder protuberance, and a convex base. The jar is covered with green glaze at the neck and body, and is richly decorated in the form of cross-stitched bands, scallops, and stamped symbols of disease prevention, in vegetal (rosettes and palmettes), linear, or architectural (border arches and trefoils) forms. Restored piece.
