Etruscan Chalice // c. 7th-6th century BC
Product Description
Ancient Etruscan, c. 7th-6th century BC. Italic, early Italy. Wonderful Etruscan bucchero chalice. With a low flaring pedestal foot and short stem, the bowl has steep walls and was stamped on the exterior with inverted elongated U shaped vertical lines and incised with circular grooves. Bucchero-ware is a specifically Etruscan style of firing pottery which results in a smooth, shiny dark gray to black finish. This type was made in Vulci, Italy, between 600-550 BC. Nicely burnished surfaces with dark grey color.
