Greece, Hellenistic Period, ca. late 3rd to 1st century BCE. A redware pottery bowl with a deep red color, an undecorated interior, but an impressive low relief design around the exterior - a band of vines within a linear border, a series of vines, ferns, and vases around the base, and a large sunflower on the base itself. Size: 4.95" W x 2.95" H (12.6 cm x 7.5 cm)These Megarian style bowls, being mold-made rather than thrown on a wheel, allowed artisans to produce bowls with intricate designs that scholars believe were modeled after those on metal bowls - made for people aspiring to wealth, or least an appearance of luxury. Adding to their function, bowls like this one were used as drinking cups, replacing the kantharos. Provenance: Ex-Private San Francisco, CA collection Condition: Repaired from two pieces. Expected surface wear commensurate with age.
