Item Details
Description
Classical World, northern Italy, Etruria, ca. last quarter of the 6th century BCE. A near-miniature aryballos of an elegant presentation with a piriform body, a tubular neck, and a flat rim with a single strap handle. The vase is painted in black-figure technique, though some areas that failed to oxidize are still red, making for an intriguing aesthetic. The decorative program consists of a wide register of hounds in profile, two larger figures on the shoulder, with striations of varying thickness on the body, and dots and striations on the rim. Size: 1.5" W x 2.5" H (3.8 cm x 6.4 cm).

Small loss to rim. Surface shows areas of encrustation, mineral deposits, and expected wear. Some figures did not oxidize in original firing and because of this are red rather than black.
