A fine bronze oinochoe, the elongated body with ribbed shoulder, and elegantly tapered neck with wide round mouth and a large flat lip. A separately-cast handle attached to the lip and shoulder, features a base attachment in the form of an ivy leaf.

The function of a handle attachment is to secure the base of the handle securely to the body of the vase. This broad surface provides a stronger bond and is often decorative, as seen here.

Dimensions: Height: 7 7/8 inches (20 cm)

Condition:  The vessel is intact and in very good condition overall, with large areas of blue-green and red-brown patina.

Provenance:   Private NYC collection, acquired from the trade in the early 2000s.
