AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A Cypriot, miniature globular juglet, of typical black-on-red form. It features a bulbous body, that leads to a flaring, trumpet mouth. There is a pronounced ridge at the junction of body and neck. An applied handle has been added from the ridged neck to the start of the body. The jug stands on a flattened base. The whole of the vessel is made of a buff clay with a vibrant red-brown slip and covered in geometric decoration in black pigment. The neck and body are decorated with linear bands, whilst three groups of five concentric circles also enrich the top of the body. Such ornamentation was typical of the ware’s style.
Provenance: From a collection acquired on the UK art market from various auction houses and collections mostly before 2000. From an important Cambridgeshire estate; thence by descent.
Condition: Excellent. Some minute chipping consistent with age. Some chipping to the rim. Some encrustation to one side of the vessel.
Dimensions: H 8.6 cm
