Questions About Greek Vase Paintings

  • 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
    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.
