This ancient Greek bronze hydria (water jar), dating back to 600 BC, is a beautiful example of Greek craftsmanship. The hydria features intricate details, including a wide, flat rim with a central spout and two loop handles. It's decorated with a combination of geometric and floral motifs, creating a sense of balance and harmony. The hydria's green patina adds a touch of age and sophistication, hinting at its long and rich history.
