- Lot Description
Ancient Near East, Holy Land, Judea, Late Bronze Age II, ca. 1450 to 1200 BCE. An elegant terracotta pouring vessel known as a "bilbil" juglet with ring-form foot, an ample bulbous body, a narrow neck, and a trefoil spout. A raised band adorns the base of a neck, while a ribbon-form handle incised with 2 vertical striations connects the spout to the shoulder. A lovely beige-painted decoration adorns the exterior, forming horizontal bands around the neck and a crisscross pattern along the body. Ceramic items manufactured in Cyprus like this example were exported in huge numbers to the Holy Land and would have contained a plethora of different oils, perfumes, or other valuable liquids. Size: 5.5" in diameter x 8" H (14 cm x 20.3 cm)
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-private Daryl Kulok collection, New York, USA, acquired in the 2000s
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.
