Ca. 1st century AD. This bronze oinochoe is elegantly designed with a slender neck and a graceful, bulbous lower body. The trefoil mouth, shaped like a three-lobed clover, adds a touch of sophistication and refinement to the overall design. The bronze material, with its lustrous sheen and warm hues, enhances the beauty and allure of the oinochoe. In the Roman world, the oinochoe was a popular vessel used for serving and pouring wine. The wine was an integral part of Roman culture and was consumed at all levels of society, from the emperor to the common people.Size: L:120mm / W:85mm ; 160gProvenance: Property of European collector Marcus Prill, Belgium, 1995-1998.
