    Description

    Greek Silversmiths in general enjoy great respect worldwide. Ilias Lalaounis in particular culminates as a Master Jeweler and has a huge following in many countries. His themes draw inspiration from Ancient GREEK Motifs, being from the Minoic, Cycladic, Classical age. The implementation of these motifs many times are exact replicas of Museum pieces and others have more modern touch. There is a Museum near the Acropolis, in Athens that bears his name and pays tribute to his creations.
    This beautiful vase is classical, yet  will suit any modern house. It is not exactly cirgular but has a slightly elongated form. The hammered Spiral pattern is beautiful.
    It is 36.2 gramms heavy and 9.2 cms tall approximately. There are no accompanying boxes or papers.
    Lighting in my pictures is uneven and reflections and shadows might appear. I try to photograph in the best light conditions to get as close to the original colours as possible. Part of a personal collection.
