- Lot Description
Greece, possibly Rhodes, ca. 4th century BCE. Incredibly rare blue and yellow glass oinochoe made using the core-form technique. Gorgeous translucent cobalt blue glass with lemon-yellow glass trailings and on edge of rim. The trefoil mouth was designed so that liquids, usually wine but obviously not the case with this vessel, could be poured in any one of three directions. A lovely and rare vessel! Size: 2.25" H (5.7 cm)
Miniature oinochoai such as this are far rarer survivals than their full-size counterparts. The white speckling within the blue glass is thought to be indicative of manufacture in Rhodes. For similar, see the British Museum, London, acc. no. GR 1856.12-26.1144.
Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA; Ex Bonhams, London; Lord Dayton of Corran collection, UK, formed from 1960 onwards. with Charles Ede Ltd, London (Ancient Glass, 2006, no. 4). The Nico F. Bijnsdorp Collection (NFB 197), acquired from the above on the 12 December 2006.
