Description
Ancient Greek Gold Cup found in the Vapheio tholos tomb in Lakonia, near Sparta.
One-handled cups with flaring straight sides are a common type of early Mycenaean cup. This gold example bears a remarkable decoration, which covers its entire surface.
A bull is captured by peaceful means: a man ties a rope around the bull’s leg, while the animal mates with a cow; three grazing bulls complete the composition.
Dated to the 15th century BC. National Archaeological Museum of Athens.
Exact museum reproduction made of gold plated copper.
Ideal also as a corporate gift!
