A carved oenochoe, or jug, sitting on a table covered with a patterned cloth. The jug is carved in the shape of a woman's head, adorned with large earrings, a necklace, and a crown of flowers. The neck of the jug rises from the crown of her head and is decorated with smaller carvings of female figures.
