Decorate your home with an Ancient Greek Oinochoe with red figure painting.An oinochoe, also spelled oinochoe(Ancient Greek: οἰνοχόη; from Ancient Greek: οἶνος oînos, "wine" and Ancient Greek: χέω khéō, "I pour"; plural oenochoai or oinochoai), is a wine jug and a key form of ancient Greek pottery.

Red-figure vase painting is one of the most important styles of figural Greek vase painting. It developed in Athens around 520 BC and remained in use until the late 3rd century BC.It replaced the previously dominant style of black figure vase painting within a few decades. Its modern name is based on the figural depictions in red colour on a black background, in contrast to the preceding black-figure style with black figures on a red background.

First side:God Hephaestus the God of fire, metalworking, and crafts .Hephaestus presents Thetis with armour for her son Achilles. The divine smith holds a hammer in one hand and a helm in the other. Thetis holds a shield and spear, and a pair of greaves hang from the wall beside her. The painting illustrates a scene from Homer's Iliad. Hephaestus was the Greek god of blacksmiths, metalworking, carpenters, craftsmen, artisans, sculptors, metallurgy, fire, and volcanoes.

Second side:It is shows Goddess Aphrodite,the Goddess of beauty, love, desire, and pleasure. In Hesiod's Theogony , she was born from sea-foam and the severed genitals of Uranus; in Homer's Iliad , she is daughter of Zeus and Dione.
