Globular aryballos (a form of pottery used to contain oils and perfumes). Greece, Corinth, 7th century BC. The decoration is a geometric pattern using lines and dots in black and red pigment. “These perfume vessels offer a narrow neck and a wide lip which could be used to spread the fragrant oils on the skin. They are typical of Corinthian ceramics” (Spiteris 1965). Bibliography (for this item)Spiteris, Tony1965 La peinture grecque et étrusque. Rencontre, Lausanne, Swizerland. |
