This listing is for an ancient Greek red-figure pottery skyphos.
A skyphos is a double-handled cup with low flanged base, used for drinking wine.
This skyphos is well detailed with red depictions of a female figure, possibly a nymph or possibly Demeter, goddess of grain and agriculture.
This piece dates to the 5th-4th century BCE.
It measures 6.75 x 4.35 x 4.65 inches
This skyphos is in great shape for its age. It is an archaeological artifact. There are a few very small minor chips inside and on the edge, but they are very small.
Provenance: ex-Nancy and Dr. E.F. Simpson collection, Los Angeles, California, USA, acquired from 1970 to 2000
