拍品专文

Bottles of this form, with rounded or pinched pouring lips, have been identified as gutti, small vessels used to dispense minute quantities of wine or oil. They may have been used after bathing or as part of sacrifices. For similar, cf. Whitehouse, 1997, no. 188, p. 121ff, and Israeli, 2003, no. 110.
