Description

**Originally Listed At $2500**

Ancient Greece, Athens, Attic, ca. 4th century BCE. An exceedingly rare example of a mold-formed pottery aryballos in the form of a shoe-covered right foot. The vessel features a flat base with a shallow arch, a stable heel, a pointed toe, a protruding ankle bulge, a funnel mouth, and a slender handle arching between the cylindrical neck and the Achilles tendon.
