Description

Combining practical function with sculptural grace, this superb vessel achieves a timeless perfection. Perhaps on some ancient table, when Rome was in her Golden Age, it contained precious wines or oils. In our own age it seems filled with that rarest of substances: the mysterious essences of the past. - (G.0241)
