Mycenaean tableware

Miniature ceramic cooking and tableware. Kitchen utensils and drinking vessels which archaeologists discover in all Mycenaean palaces, i.e. in Mycenae, Pylos, Tiryns and provide us with insight into the feasts and celebrations organized by the contemporaries of the Trojan war heroes.

The box includes a tripod cooking pot, two cups- kylikes, a conical rhyton, a mug – kypelo, a lekanis and a large spoon or ladle, based on original artefacts from the Museum of Chora near Pylos in Peloponnese (end of 2nd millennium BC).

The ceramic toys by THETIS/ Attic Black Shop are wheel-thrown and hand-painted prior to firing. As they do not contain any toxic substances or especially small parts, they are safe to be used by children, preferably under adult supervision due to the possibility of breakage.
