- Lot Description
Northern Italy, Etruria, ca. 6th to 5th century BCE. An attractive pottery amphora of the Nikosthenic type - so-named from the Greek Attic potter who "invented" this style with wide strap handles in the 6th century BCE. The apple-shaped body rests atop a small circular foot and exhibits a rounded shoulder, a corseted neck, and a flared rim. The body exhibits dozens of incised vertical striations below 6 concentric corded rings, with a trio of palmettes adorning each side of the neck, and 5 corded bands adorning each handle. The composition is covered in fine black glaze which has faded over time. Size: 4.25" W x 4.75" H (10.8 cm x 12.1 cm).
For a stylistically-similar example, please see The Metropolitan Museum of Art, accession number 96.18.88: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/246603
Provenance: private East Coast, USA collection; ex-Artemis Gallery; ex-private G. Loles collection, Easton, Connecticut, USA, acquired in the 1980s; ex-private Porter collection, Chicago, Illinois, USA, acquired in the 1960s
