Hellenistic 63 - 332 BC
This is a lamp and a goblet jar from the Hellenistic Era. The vessel has a incredible silohoute and base. However, this form is not ideal in a functional setting; the pot would be easy to tip over and slip the contents.

Persian 332 – 586 BC
I love the form of the pitcher. It is very simple and functional but has elements of design. This design is seen in the rhythmic lines in the pottery.

The form of the pitcher in this piece is amazing. The piece has form functionality and beauty. Clearly humanity began to develope more elaborate forms and shapes. This is beautiful to me because it has the narrow bottom on the pticher. One of my own pitchers has a great resemblance to this piece.

You are not going to believe what these are! They are baby bottles. I found this to be incredible. THe small hole is for the baby to suck on and the larger hole at the top is to pour the contents into. It would be interesting to do a piece that reflects this archaic style bottle with the modern day bottle.

Middle Bronze Age 1550 – 1900 BC
This a pot that was used to cook found in. This piece is incredbily expensive to buy now because many of these pots broke and were not preserved. People would put water and cook food inside the pot for people to eat. Intriguing!
