Crafted during the 8th century BC, this particular piece takes the shape of a female head, standing at a height of 7.20 cm. The attention to detail is remarkable as every feature of the woman's face has been meticulously sculpted onto this small vessel. The artistic mastery displayed in this archeological treasure is truly awe-inspiring. Its delicate form and intricate design reflect the skill and creativity of artisans from the archaic age. With its smooth curves and graceful lines, it epitomizes the beauty that was revered during Greek civilization.
