    Ring-shaped amphora

    The artefact

    Glazed ceramic ring-shaped amphora. The shape is inspired by the traditional crafsmanship production, reinterpreting a model of Roman origin. Skillfully made, it is imbued with archaic decorative identity, featuring also a contemporary touch in its fully-glazed decorations, which are then tin-glazed in monochromatic turquoise and vibrated.
