Lot 20C
Greece, Hellenistic Period, ca. 332 to 31 BCE. A fine pottery flask, made from two molded halves, in the form of Aphrodite. The spout with its wide lip emerges from the top of her head. Aphrodite, the goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and sex, is a delightful choice for a flask - a winking recognition, perhaps of the role sipping a hidden liquid plays in her remit. Size: 2" W x 6.95" H (5.1 cm x 17.7 cm)
