Dated 13th CenturyEarthenware Lantern 9th-10th century Found at the site of Sabz Pushan, a thriving residential neighborhood during the 9th and 12th centuries, this lantern is made from reddish earthenware that is covered with a green slip. Its slightly grooved cylindrical body is tapered slightly toward its flat base. It has a sloped shoulder and a conical top that is surmounted by a horizontally ridged shank and a ring handle which is grooved along its rim. The base of the handle is pierced with two ventilating holes. Three groups of three elongated oval-shaped perforations pierce the upper side walls of each side of the lantern which would produce a series of pleasing reflections when an oil-based light source in the lantern was lit. This object is one of many objects excavated at Nishapur, Iran in 1937 and was acquired by the Museum through a division of finds with the Iranian government..

Mayan Civilization, recent Classical period 500-900.Terracotta skyphos (deep drinking cup) ca. 500 B.C. Greek, Attic Obverse, between hunters, lioness felling fallow deerReverse, between hunters, lion felling deerThis vase gives noteworthy testimony to the persistence of tradition in Attic vase-painting. Introduced from the Near East and depicted as early as Geometric vases, the motif of a feline felling a bull or deer appears here in mannerly, decorative form. The hunters to either side reflect the predilection for symmetrical compositions with decorative elements, figural or floral, at the handles. The shape of the skyphos readily accommodates the narrative frieze..

Monte Abbatone Group (Etruscan)Bowl with Handle (Tebachi) with Bamboo in Snow Pattern first half of the19th century Style of Nin'ami Dōhachi (Takahashi Dōhachi II) Active during the second golden age of Kyoto pottery and based in the Kiyomizu-Gojōzaka area, Ninami Dōhachi produced an extensive body of work, including tea ceremony wares, as here, as well as sencha tea wares, ornamental objects, and sculptures. He successfully revived the decorative styles of Nonomura Ninsei (ca. 1640s-1690s) and Ogata Kenzan (1663-1743; see the adjacent work), who represent the first peak of Kyoto ware. This vessel, with its powerful composition symbolic of resilience—bamboo bends but does not break under heavy snow—was intended for the tea ceremony. It is a re-creation of one of Kenzans popular works. The application of the thick, milky glaze creates the impression of an intense snowstorm.. Bowl with Handle (Tebachi) with Bamboo in Snow Pattern 748315Terracotta mastoid skyphos ca. 500 B.C. Greek, Attic The mastoid skyphos is a type of drinking vessels named for its characteristic breast-like shape. Between about 540 and 500 B.C. Greek vase-painters placed eyes mainly on drinking vessels, probably because they were apotropaic (intended to ward off evil), or so that the cup would take on the appearance of a mask when the drinker raised it to his lips. This type of vase was imported in large numbers into Etruria.. Terracotta mastoid skyphos 329994Juglet 1050-950 B.C. Cypriot One-handled flask with bands, and on each side a maltese cross.. Juglet.
