Item Details

Description

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. An impressive bronze handle depicting Silenus, with vivid facial features, a long mustache, full beard, fringed coiffure, and pointy ears modeled in relief at the lower terminus. The upper section of the handle presents (from top down) a floral blossom flanked by leaves, a profiled portrait head that perhaps represents the owner of this piece, and a petite vessel. Silenus was the mythical teacher and drinking companion of Dionysus, Greek god of wine, winemaking, and the grape harvest - and furthermore, by virtue of the inebriated state brought about by the ingestion of such fermented libations of the vine, the deity was associated with madness, theatre, and spiritual ecstasy. A wonderful piece, especially for any oenophiles (wine lovers) out there! Size: 4.75" L x 3.375" H (12.1 cm x 8.6 cm); 6.625" H (16.8 cm) on included custom stand.
