The distinctive base of this Canaanite jar is made of three looped legs that prop the body up in tripod-like fashion. The design is more aesthetically pleasing than innovative, yet the rest of the jug was carefully made to exacting standards that allowed for the flawless curves of its white ceramic exterior.
The upper half of the jug is decorated with chocolate brown bands that alternate between straight lines and tightly wound zigzags. The overall effect is an ancient artifact imbued with a timeless sense of artistry and originality.
