Item Details
Description
Greece, Hellenistic Period, ca. 323 to 1st century BCE. A pair of small pottery vessels, one with a long neck and bulbous body capped by a slightly flared rim, and the other in an amphora shape with a long, slender body that moves down to a flat base. Both would have been made as alternatives to glass, which at the time was very expensive to produce, and would have been used to hold small quantities of precious liquids - perhaps olive oil? Size of largest: 2.2" W x 6" H (5.6 cm x 15.2 cm)
