A very rare and interesting Early Christian / Coptic drinking cup, Egypt, 1st. cent. BC-4th. century AD.
Attractive cup, shaped much like the greek Kylix, low with twin handles. Finely decorated in torquise and black line decor. The motif includes a large cross, a flower, a podium? and arrow symbols.
Size: 14 cm. in diameter incl. handles and 4,8 cm. tall.
Condition: Choice, looks intact, but we think there's a restoration of a crack, very professionally made.
