Greek Gnathian Black Glaze Pottery Oinochoe
About the Item
A black-glazed pottery oinochoe that boasts distinctive features that characterise this specific type of Greek pottery. The vessel has a rounded body that exhibits delicate fluting that gracefully tapers towards the foot. The neck of the vessel showcases a wide, trefoil mouth, providing a striking visual contrast to the body's form. The black-painted surface, adorned with intricate ivy tendrils and blossom motifs, demonstrates the meticulous attention to detail and the skill of the artisans who adorned these vessels. Notably, the absence of glaze on the foot further contributes to the aesthetic appeal of the Gnathian oinochoe, as it accentuates the natural texture of the ceramic material. For a similar example, please see The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Accession Number: 76.12.8.
