Leka (bottle)

This jug is made of white clay, glazed, and has a narrow neck and a graceful transition to shoulders. It is decorated with blue stylised painted floral and geometric ornamentation, arranged in a circular, transverse pattern. The ornament consists of branches, triangles, leaves, and dots. The piece is thrown on a potter's wheel, hand-decorated, and fired twice in a furnace. The shape and decoration of the piece are traditionally Lithuanian.
