Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $500**

Roman, Holy Land, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A lovely redware pottery pouring vessel called an oinochoe of a tall and sturdy form exhibiting a discoid foot, a relatively spherical body with a gently corseted shoulder, a tapered neck surmounted by a thick trefoil pouring spout, and a strap handle arching off the verso of the spout. The highly burnished surfaces imbue the vessel with an incredibly smooth exterior, and white calcifications and encrustations stand as a chromatic complement to the underlying russet and vermilion pottery hues. Size: 5.7" W x 9.3" H (14.5 cm x 23.6 cm)

Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-prominent D.K. collection, New York, USA, acquired in the 2000s
