Seleucid or Parthian Elaborate bowls and vessels were highly valued in ancient Near Eastern society. During the pre-Achaemenid, Achaemenid, Seleucid and Parthian periods, examples made of bronze, silver, gold, and clay were used throughout a vast area extending both to the east and west of Iran. This elegant bronze cast vessel, reportedly from Iran, is decorated with floral and botanical patterns in relief inlaid with silver. Acanthus leaves and floral motifs appear on the neck; heart-shaped leaves and lily or lotus flowers around the collar. The leaves of a white lotus plant on the body alternate with additional blossoms on the body. The broad petals and vertical ribbing distinguish the leaves of a white lotus from those of a blue one, which is more commonly represented. Silver inlay that originally appeared on the leaves central spines, still extant on one of them, would have enhanced the vases luxurious appearance even further.

Sometimes called "relief blue," the paint is applied so thickly as to create a raised surface.. Two-Handled Jar with Stag 468165Terracotta bowl. Culture: Cypriot. Dimensions: H. 14 in. (35.6 cm)diameter 10 7/8 in. (27.6 cm). Date: ca. 2500-1600 B.C..Bowl with handle and two spouts.Red Polished Ware vessels, such as this bowl, made their appearance at the very beginning of the Early Cypriot I period, having been introduced by immigrants from Anatolia who settled on the island soon after the middle of the third millennium B.C. The surface was covered with a red slip, which was then burnished to render a lustrous appearance. The small rosettes and incisions on the handle, filled with lime after firing, lend a striking contrast to the red background of the vase.Cypriot Red Polished Ware has long been known from finds in tombs throughout the island, and has recently appeared at settlement sites as well. The shapes and decorations on vessels, like this double-spouted bowl, highlight the creative spirit of the Cypriot potter, showing the artist's sense of elegance and geometric symmetry.

Greek, Argive Inscribed on top of the mouth "one of the prizes from Argive Hera"This hydria, like Greek art in all its forms, is marked by clearly defined parts organized into a harmonious well-proportioned whole. The plain body swells gently to the shoulder zone, which turns inward with a soft, cushionlike curve. The shoulder is decorated with a simple shallow tongue pattern that echoes the vertical ribbing on the foot. The neck shoots up from the shoulder to a flaring mouth from which the bust of a woman seems to emerge. The figure belongs to the vertical handle of the hydria. She wears a peplos. Her serene face is framed by carefully detailed hair. Rotelles with a rosette pattern give a semblance of outstretched hands. We know from the inscription on the mouth that this hydria was a prize awarded at games for the goddess Hera at her sanctuary in Argos in the Peloponnisos..

Etruscan Large column-kraters with decorative straps bridging the gap between shoulder and rim are typical of bucchero workshops in the Vulci area during the sixth century B.C. This bucchero pesante (heavy bucchero) example is unusual in that it has six straps, rather than the normal two, and the largest are decorated with striding lions, not human masks. A truncated warrior, equipped with crested helmet, armor or cloak, and two large spears, appears on the four smaller straps. The shape is ultimately derived from Corinthian metallic and ceramic models. When they have human masks, the straps may derive from a type of Corinthian pyxis (cosmetics jar). Thus, the Etruscan potter, although inspired by Greek models, has created an entirely new hybrid..
