Descrizione

Eastern Mediterranean faience amphoriskos
6th century BC; height cm 14 (5,5’’); Amphoriskos with high neck, globular body and ribbon handles attached vertically between the rim and the shoulder. Painted in black, the shoulder is decorated with fluting imitation pattern and fishes on the body; under each handles, a lotus flower.
Attributable to Graeco-Oriental production, probably rhodian, for the shape and type of decoration. These are production centers that during the 6th century BC exported faience objects in the Mediterranean and Etruscan area, taking inspiration from egyptizing style artifacts (aryballoi, unguentaria and amulets).

PROVENANCE:
French private collection, formed in the 1980s.
