Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $300**

Magna Graecia, South Italy, ca. 4th century BCE. A large kothon (also called a plemochoe or exaleiptron) with a sinuous loop handle just below the rounded rim, all on a raised ring base. Adding to its attractive form is the beautiful painted color scheme of chocolate brown on a cream hued ground - the rounded rim adorned with a fretted register surrounded by linear and dotted bands. Such vessels were essentially ancient air fresheners created to contain fragrant substances to imbue a space with sweet smelling aromas. Size: 7.25" in diameter x 2.375" H (18.4 cm x 6 cm)
