Central medallion motif featuring four central palmettes, two large and two small, whose stems form intertwining tendrils. The small, two-tone palmettes (brown and violet) are arranged in a semicircle with two groups of four curved lines forming the heart; above them are petals and below, more elongated, are the wide-open sepals. The reverse is decorated with three concentric reddish lines, and two other identical lines in a darker shade. Beige clay and slip. Chips around the edges, but very well preserved.
Greek art, Corinth, c. 620 - 600 B.C. Attributed to the Painter of the Chimera (M.H. Delavaud).
