Corinthian animal style covered jewelry box replica - National Museum of Athens
The original object comes from the pre classical period or the "Orientalization" period (around 700-600 BC) and is now collected in the National Museum of Athens. It is a container used in ancient Greece to store cosmetics, jewelry, or other small accessories, usually with a unique lid and handle. Known for its exquisite decorations and vivid animal patterns, these patterns reflect the achievements of the exchange between Greek art and Near Eastern civilization at that time. Craftsmen abandoned traditional geometric vase painting designs and instead adopted new Eastern designs, such as exotic Chimera and Sphinx, fierce beasts and prey, as well as floral rose decorations and palm leaf patterns.
Attic Red Painted Pottery Box - National Museum of Athens
Depicting Leto on Delos Island, preparing to give birth to Apollo and Artemis. Originating from Eretria in the 4th century BC, it is currently housed in the National Museum of Athens. It is an ancient Greek ceramic container commonly used to store jewelry, cosmetics, or other small items. The characteristic is that its surface is decorated with a red painting style, which fills the black outline of the pottery with red, while the rest of the pottery retains its natural color or is painted black. The red painting style developed between the late 6th century BC and the 5th century BC, replacing the early black painting style.
