Feature description: Bartmann jug with a mask on the neck and three identical coats of arms on the belly. The coat of arms consists of four sections: three hearts at the top left, a cross at the top right, a rosette at the bottom left, and an inverted V at the bottom right. To the left and right of the coat of arms is what appears to be a letter. It seems to be an E and a B in mirror image.
