A Collection of Three Antiquities from Early Greece

Pre 16th century
Description

This interesting group of early Greek antiquities consists of three pottery vessels, each one most interesting considering their great age. Circa 4th century BC. A jug with incised decoration, a twin handled flask with traces of a painted design and a twin handled vase with signs of painted decoration. The vase has slight chipping to the rim, but all three are in remarkable condition with no restoration or repair, and each one has a good original untouched finish in keeping with their age.

The largest piece is the vase, which measures 11cm high x 9cm wide x 9cm deep.

Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Ancient Greek terracotta vessels are earthenware containers produced from regional clay during classical antiquity for utilitarian, ceremonial, or funerary purposes. They encompass forms such as small oil pitchers, liquid flasks, and storage jars.

These vessels were formed manually or shaped on a potter wheel before being fired in updraft kilns. Surface decoration was achieved using diluted clay slips, which oxidised or reduced during firing to alter the natural ceramic tone.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural surface encrustation, mineral deposits, and structural wear consistent with long-term burial. Laboratory analysis, including thermoluminescence testing and clay body examination, helps verify age and origin.

Terracotta antiquities provide architectural contrast when placed against contemporary backdrops. They are suited to display on open shelving units, mantelpieces, or console tables within minimalist or curated interior schemes.

Store unglazed earthenware in a dry environment with stable humidity levels away from direct sunlight. Remove surface dust gently using a soft, dry brush, and avoid contact with water, detergents, or chemical cleaners.
