Item Details

Description

Greece, Magna Graecia, Southern Italy, Apulia, ca. 340 to 325 BCE. A beautiful wheel-thrown pottery lekanis consisting of a shallow base and an ornate lid. The vessel displays a large, flat knob on its lid and a similarly-shaped foot, creating a wonderful symmetrical appearance. The base and dark areas of the lid have been glazed a glossy black, and the lid itself exhibits two ladies of fashion in red-figure between a pair of stylized palmettes. The lid handle has a radiating spoke-form design within its recessed center, and the lower rim is detailed with a repeating vertical striped motif. Most surfaces showcase a lovely silvery iridescence as well as small areas of rainbow-hued iridescence on the lid. Size: 4.25" H (10.8 cm).

Lidded lekanides were cosmetic containers, often given by fathers to brides on their wedding day. The lady of fashion motif complements this - often thought to represent a young woman on her wedding day. Each lady wears a kekryphalos hairstyle, earrings, and a beaded necklace. This vessel has a very interesting iridescent patina that gives it a sparkling appearance.
