The image shows a black and white photo of a "Pepper Caster" by an unknown artist. The object is a small jar with a rounded body. The jar's body is light-colored and features raised oval indentations covering its surface. The jar has a flat bottom. It has a short neck and a dark-colored metal screw-top lid with small holes on top. The jar casts a shadow to the left on a plain white background.
