- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, South Italic Colonies, Apulia, Xenon Ware, ca. 340 to 325 BCE. A fabulous pair of pottery skyphoi, each of petite form and presenting a discoid foot and thin walls that flare outwards to form a deep basin and circular rim with twin parabola handles sitting just below. Both enveloped in a rich black glaze, their exterior bodies feature differing, orange-painted decorative programs. The larger skyphos exhibits 2 horizontal registers, the top with a spiral motif and bottom displaying right-pointing arrows. Conversely, the squatter vessel boasts a horizontal row of "S" shapes on one side and left-pointing arrows on the other, both underlined by a pair of parallel striations. Size (of largest): 4.4" in diameter x 2" H (11.2 cm x 5.1 cm)
Xenon ware is a specific type of Apulian pottery, named after a vase in Frankfurt (Beazley, EVP, p. 219,1.) that is inscribed with the name: XENON. The type is distinguished by added pale orange or pink decoration over black glaze.
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-private T.G. collection, Williston, Florida, USA, acquired in 2000
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.
