- Lot Description
**Originally Listed At $1000**
Classical World, Etruria (Italy), ca. 6th century BCE. A beautifully-formed oinochoe, or pouring vessel, with a thick strap handle that flows from the thin rim to the rounded shoulder. The neck is cylindrical, the body below it apple-shaped, with a narrow disc foot. The rim is curved into a trefoil spout which facilitates the pouring of liquids. This type of jug may have been made specifically to be buried with offerings, as was the intention with much fine Etruscan pottery. Size: 5.5" W x 8.75" H (14 cm x 22.2 cm).
Etruscan bucchero, produced between the 7th and 5th centuries BCE in central Italy, is characterized by its smooth clay and dark grey or black shiny, polished surface. Objects in this style have been found in tombs around modern Tuscany and northern Lazio, and as exported wares as far afield as North Africa and Spain.
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-private V. B. collection, Munich, Germany, acquired in mid-2000 near Gackstatter, Frankfurt, Germany
