They featured a glossy, black finish achieved through a special firing process. The technique involved applying a thin layer of slip (liquid clay) over the pottery before firing, resulting in a lustrous, black surface. This varnishing method was prominent in the 6th and 5th centuries BCE, a period known for its artistic innovation in Greek pottery. These ceramics were often adorned with intricate red-figure designs, creating a striking contrast with the glossy black background. The combination of the varnish and intricate artwork showcased the skilled craftsmanship of ancient Greek potters. Provenance : Suisse, galerie G.V.E.
