Lot 35A
Magna Graecia, Italic (today's Bari and Foggia provinces), Daunian, ca. 4th century BCE. A lovely Daunian polychrome pottery kyathos, or dipper, with a characteristically high, flattened, looped handle attached to a shallow bowl with a subtly flared rim, all decorated in an attractive decorative program of chocolate brown and red stripes and stylized geometrics called listati on a cream ground. Particularly elaborate are the abstract motifs on the handle, tondo, and underside of the base. Daunian society included a blend of native Italians and Greeks who had settled in the area. Though many Daunian vessel forms were strongly influenced by the native Italians of this region, the kyathos was a Greek creation and the generous width of the strap was purely Daunian. A stunning example, replete with a brilliant silhouette and finely delineated decorative program. Size: 5.375" in diameter x 5.25" H (13.7 cm x 13.3 cm)
Provenance: private Carlton collection, Los Angeles, California, USA, acquired between 1965 and 1980
