Iberian Orinoco Ceramic Wine Pot - Waldpenias Museum

Iberian Oenochoe, also spelled as oenochoe, is a ceramic wine jug with a finely curved handle and a clover shaped mouth. This type of wine pot comes from the archaeological site of Cerrodela Cabezas in Vald é Penias, Castile La Mancha region of Spain, dating back to the Iron Age (3rd century BC). This cultural relic is collected in the Waldpenias Museum. Not only is it a practical container, but it is also a showcase of art and craftsmanship. Its intricate curves and unique mouth design reflect the aesthetic concepts and pottery making techniques of ancient Iberians.
