very very lovely presentation. i csnt say the gilding is my favorite - but thats probably because im not used to the concept (similar to the painted marble statues - though ive seen some that arent painted like clowns).

[@ivanmyrc]

Εύγε! Σαν φοιτητής ιστορίας της τέχνης, νομίζω ότι βοηθήθηκα πάρα πολύ στην κατανόηση τεχνικών που όταν απλά διάβαζα γιαυτές...λίγα καταλάβαινα μάλλον!

Would love to know the black glaze formula & firing cycle - is there a paper on it?

[@nominkhanaarsalang154]

Amazing video thankyou 😊😊😊😊🤗🤗🤗

kylix cups are very difficult to recreate , painting can be a nightmare. to get one out of a kiln perfect is a joy, the height is half the width of the bowel

[@nikolasnehemiasfrancescodesabo]

Admirable indeed! Please, what is the music in the background?

[@atticblackauthenticsltd914]

the music is by George Tsangarakis a specialist in percussion musical instruments

[@nikolasnehemiasfrancescodesabo]

Thank you! It would be a great opportunity to know some Greek musician!

[@AlbertoZaccaria]

Amazing! I’m an Italian philosophy student. I’m in love with ancient Greece. I’ve just bought a lathe to start crafting vases and I would like to imitate Greek works. Where should I start? Very nice work and thank you for sharing

So, it took around ~100 hours to make. I'm assuming it would take substantially less for an experienced artisan that does nothing but kylikes et al. all day, but it still seems very laborious. My understanding is also that pottery wasn't very expensive. How was this activity profitable?

[@allofthelightsbykanyewest]

economy of scale

[@fretkoe]

May I ask what something like this might cost? I have been looking for a good reproduction of a belly amphora which is in a museum (made by Antimenes) for a while now. Unfortunately the other sellers of replica greek vases do not follow the ancient technique of firing the glaze - they just paint it black. What is the approximate pricing range for something like this? The inferior replicas are about €1000, so how much more would one of yours cost?

[@greenc1088]

I still don't understand why the slip stays black but other parts return to red, can someone please explain?

[@atticblackauthenticsltd914]

The paint layer vitrifies during reduction and so it doesn't allow oxygen to penetrate and reoxidise the black iron oxides in the final stage. The ceramic body is porous and turns to red. More in the short videos ATTIC VASES part 1-3.

[@greenc1088]

@@atticblackauthenticsltd914 THANK YOU!

[@RosssRoyce]

These drawings are EXTREMELY beautiful but very different from the ancient ones! The ancient ones use QUICK, singlehanded, virtuoso curves at each joint, not a slow, continuous, sinuous line.

[@riverwildcat1]

Yes, these reproductions are different because the originals were so much more difficult to produce. Many more hours of detailed and delicate craftsmanship were required back in 450 BC.

[@wishlist_12wishlist55]

I wonder why the names of the artisans who actually made the bowl are never mentioned. Could you please tell their names, at least, if not more information is provided.

For 3 years it hasn't been black...🥵

[@scottxu]

It's certainly a great reproducing and learning process, but the final lines in the final reproduction don't seem to flow as smoothly as the original. Seems to be the hands of an amature rather than an experienced painter.

[@atticblackauthenticsltd914]

You must consider the hesitation of the artist during filming - you can see her competence in other short videos (eg kzbin.info/www/bejne/anqveJabrNugZs0). Most of the artists and artisans do not work in front of others. Good point though.
