- Lot Description
Classical World, Southern Europe, Italy, Etruria, ca. 6th to 5th century BCE. A beautiful wheel-thrown pottery stamnos with a discoid foot, an inverted piriform body with a rounded shoulder, a corseted neckline, a flared rim which at one time held a lid, and a pair of applied handles on the sides. One side of the black-glazed vessel presents a stylish 'lady of fashion' with an elegant neckline adorned with a stippled necklace, dangling earrings, a kekryphalos hairstyle, and a stern, left-facing gaze. The other side depicts a stylized, left-facing male head with a perky nose, and a coiffure with frilled fringe lightly draped atop his forehead. Both heads are separated by a pair of spiraling volutes as well as a stylized palmette beneath the handles. The word "stamnos" is still in use in the modern Greek language and was traditionally utilized in ancient times for holding wine, oil, figs, salted foods, or other plentiful foodstuffs. Size: 9.75" W x 9.8" H (24.8 cm x 24.9 cm).
This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated. A full report will accompany purchase.
