Lead-Glazed Skyphos, 50 B.C.-A.D. 50. Additional Info: Garlands of pinecones, a popular decoration on lead-glazed skyphoi or cup of this period, decorate this one. Masks of Silenos hang on the sides under its handles. The mold-made decoration on the exterior of the skyphos was meant to imitate the repoussé decoration of vessels made from precious metals, such as gold and silver, and the form of the handles derives from the same source.
