Crafted from painted glass by the Eastern Mediterranean School, this exquisite piece stands at a height of 13.4 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The oenochoe, also known as a jug or carafe, represents an important artifact from ancient Greece. Its intricate design and delicate craftsmanship reflect the artistic prowess of the ancient Greeks. This particular oenochoe exemplifies their mastery over glasswork during this period. The vibrant colors adorning its surface bring life to its elegant form. The careful brushstrokes reveal detailed patterns and motifs that were significant in Greek culture at the time.
