A finely cast ancient Greek bronze kohl pot and applicator. The amphora-type pot features an elongated body that tapers towards the bottom, a short neck and a flattened flared rim. Two curved handles have been applied to the sides and still display remains of bronze chains that were used to suspend the vessel. Inserted into the pot is a bronze stick applicator with a flared flattened end and decorative ridges. A green patination and some earthy encrustations remain on the surface.
