The jug has a scored and folded body, formed as a cylinder, with the curved leading edge establishing movement and rhythm. The handle forms an undulating wave echoing the movement in the main body. Decoration is restrained to a pair of rivets attaching the handle to the body through a triangular form, which itself creates an additional geometric perspective.
