Black figure Potlix 20cm,Owl in the middle Eye Kylix

Enhance your decor with a Black figure Kylix from Ancient Greece with an owl in the middle.In Greek mythology, a little owl traditionally represents or accompanies Athena, the virgin goddess of wisdom
This type of kylix is termed "eye-cup" because of its characteristic decoration with enormous eyes on both sides of the vessel. The eyes refer possibly to folk beliefs about the "evil eye" and the warding off of its effect, or simply warned the user of the vase about the loss of consciousness that excessive wine-drinking caused (kylix was the standard vessel for drinking wine). The vase belongs to a particular class of pottery known as "Chalcidian". It is a homogenous group of high quality black-figure vases which appeared around the mid-6th c. BC
