Grand Tour Terracotta Kylix Tazza

About the Item

This Grand Tour terracotta drinking cup (kylix) is a later example of the elaborately painted vessels used during symposia in ancient Greece. The broad, shallow bowl with two handles atop a pedestal base permitted the drinker to maintain a recumbent pose while drinking, as was customary in a symposium. This kylix dates late 19th, early 20th century.
