Description

Iron Age black clay oil filler in very good condition.

This type of black juglet is very distinctive of the Iron Age II (700-586 B.C.), and is a great piece from the time of great Prophets of the Judean Kingdom. The small opening was used to pour oil into lamps without spilling.

Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something on the wheel. But the vessel that he was making of clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he remade it into another vessel, as it pleased the potter to make. (Jeremiah 18:3-4)
