Oinochoe

An oinochoe is an ancient Greek pottery vessel used for pouring liquids like wine or water. Typically, it features a rounded body, a single handle attached to the neck, and a long, narrow spout for controlled pouring. Oinochoai were often decorated with intricate designs or scenes and played a key role in social and ceremonial rituals, such as dining or religious offerings. They reflect the artistry and functional craftsmanship of ancient Greek pottery-making, combining aesthetic appeal with practical use.
