Return of the Jug

Has anyone else noticed that in "The Return of the King" (2003) the pitcher Pippin puts in Gandalf's arms when he takes the palantír looks just like the one he has in Minas Tirith a few minutes later? The first time is about 00:30:09 into the film, the second is 00:52:46. I'm not suggesting that the filmmakers made a mistake, only I was surprised to see that Pippin or Gandalf would bother to pack it. Or that such identical jugs were in mass production in a pre-industrial society.
