Black-glazed bowl on stand with small cups attached around the rim.
Hollow, flaring base; handles attached horizontally and bent inward over the rim, which is flat-topped and slightly projecting. Based on an Attic multiple kernos (late 4th century BCE) from the Ancient Agora of Athens, excavated in May 1932.
The kernos was a ritual vessel typically used in religious ceremonies, especially those associated with Demeter and Persephone, fertility rites, or chthonic cults. The small cups may have held offerings such as grains, seeds, oil, or incense. It could be carried in procession—its stand and inward-turned handles possibly aiding this function.
The original was found in an archaeological context linked to the preparation and serving of food, which is the modern use we suggest for our reproduction.
