- Lot Description
Ancient Greece, Athens, early Hellenistic period, ca. second half of the 4th century BCE. A shapely bronze pouring vessel known as oinochoe covered in mottled green and brown patina. The round-bottomed vessel exhibits an apple-shaped body with a rounded shoulder, a squat neck, and a pinched trefoil spout with a flared lip. The high-arching handle bears a trifurcated top with a pair of lateral roundels on top and a stylized palmette attachment plate on the bottom. Both the handle and body were cast separately via the lost wax (cire perdue) technique and then attached via petite rivets on the shoulder and rim. Size: 7.5" W x 11.2" H (19 cm x 28.4 cm); 11.4" H (29 cm) on included lucite display ring.
For a stylistically similar example of a flat-bottomed form, please see The British Museum, museum number 1868,0606.2
Provenance: ex-Albert Stendahl collection, owner of Stendahl Gallery, Los Angeles, California, USA, acquired before 1980
