Rustic single-handle earthenware jug featuring hand-painted bands of stylized motifs in muted green, brown, and ochre tones. The jug exhibits a distinct two-tone surface: the upper section decorated with abstract and linear patterns, while the lower half reveals the natural red clay body. The form includes a rounded belly tapering into a flat base with an upward-flared neck and thick strap handle. Surface wear and patina consistent with age suggest this jug may originate from a traditional craft-producing region, possibly North Africa or the Mediterranean basin. No visible maker's marks on the unglazed base. A striking decorative piece with timeworn charm and ethnographic appeal, suitable for collectors of vernacular or antique pottery.
