Description

Originally listed at $1,800...

Ancient Near East, Arabian Peninsula, modern-day Oman, ca. early 1st millennium BCE. A gorgeous pottery storage urn boasting an immense scale and a robust silhouette. Impressively balancing atop a narrow base, the huge, ovoid body is embellished by a trio of integral bands, each with an impressed spiral pattern, while 2 vertical loop handles sit at the top of the tapered shoulder. Large pottery urns like this example were used across the ancient Near East for thousands of years to store substantial quantities of grain, fruits, and other foodstuffs. They were sometimes painted with bright decorative pigments so the owner could distinguish one urn from another. Size: 18.1" Diameter x 24.9" H (46 cm x 63.2 cm)
