Hellenistic Greek Unguentarium – 3rd to 1st Century BC A Hellenistic Greek unguentarium with a rounded globular body, tall cylindrical neck and flared rim, a form used for storing perfumes, scented oils, cosmetics and other precious liquids. The vessel preserves extensive mineral encrustations and burial deposits across the surface, particularly around the body and lower neck, giving it a characteristic archaeological appearance. Its elongated proportions and restrained profile are consistent with Hellenistic-period unguentaria produced throughout the eastern Mediterranean between the 3rd and 1st Century BC. Material: Terracotta Dimensions: 13.8 cm Weight: 138.5 gr Provenance: Acquired in Denmark at an Art Gallery. We guarantee the authenticity of the pieces, backed by the combined experience of our experts spanning more than 40 years. A Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) will be sent digitally by email.
