Questions About Ancient Greek Greek
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    An ancient silver coin is called a Drachma. It is one of the world’s oldest coins and was the equivalent of the value of a handful of arrows.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    An amphora, a two-handled pot with a large body and a narrow neck, is a Greek form of pottery. It was largely used for storage. You can shop a collection of amphoras from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The types of Greek vases relate to how people used them in their daily lives. They include storage and transport vases like the amphora and the hydria, mixing vessels like the krater, jugs like the kantharos and perfume and oil vases like the lekythos. On 1stDibs, shop a range of antique vases.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021
    Greek vases go by a number of names — scholars tasked with naming Greek pottery have done so over the years by studying Greek and Latin literature as well as trying to uncover names based on inscriptions on the vessels themselves. Some of the names used today — such as pelike, hydria, stamnos or amphora for storage vessels — according to current research, may in fact not be the names that were used in antiquity. Find Greek vases and other Greek pottery from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    There are so few surviving bronze sculptures because many of the works of art were melted down to create weapons. In addition, some others became lost over the centuries. You can find a variety of antique bronze statues on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    Greek Orthodox icons are icons that are symbolic representations of the Divine. Orthodox icons alter the perspective and form of the image, making it less lifelike. This is done so that we can see past worldly appearances and focus on the spiritual truth of the holy person or event.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Greek art is known for its patronage to the gods and naturalistic, yet idealized, portrayal of the human body. Both the painters and sculptures of the time attempted to depict a body in motion, exactly how it appeared to the naked eye. Classical Greek art is renowned for its balance and sense of proportion.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    An amphora vase is the Greek vase that has an urn-like shape with a wide mouth, medium-length neck and curved body supported by a footed or flat base. Amphora vases usually have two arched handles. Shop a selection of amphora vases on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Beautiful Greek masks represented different things depending on the theatrical production that they were used in. They could symbolize the innocence or purity of the character or help the audience identify the main male or female character. On 1stDibs, find a selection of antique masks.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    The difference between black-figure and red-figure Greek pottery is that in black-figure pottery, figural and ornamental motifs were applied with a slip that turned black during firing and the background was color of the clay, whereas the decorative motifs on red-figure vases remained the color of the clay; the background, filled in with a slip, turned black. Red-figure is essentially the reverse of a black figure. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and antique Greek pottery.
