Item Details
Description
Circa 10th-mid 8th century B.C. Formed with a high foot and loop handle to the inturned rim, decorated on the outside rim with a complex pattern of interlocked chevrons perhaps representing two seated figures. Cf. Hencken, H., Tarquinia and Etruscan Origins, London, 1968, p.35. 410 grams, 18 cm (7 1/8 in.).

From the estate of Mr Robert Onsted (1948-2011). Ex Malter Galleries Inc, California, USA, 2007. Palmyra Heritage Gallery, New York, USA, 19 October 2020, lot 141. Property of a South Australian private collector, with collection reference 20.21. Accompanied by detailed collector's catalogue pages including description and photograph.

Hencken notes that cover-bowls as the lids of urns assume various closely related shapes; if there is ornament, it generally consists of some of the same decoration as is found on urns. [No Reserve]
