This kantharos is an impressive reinterpretation of Roman silver vessels, capturing the ecstatic and often uninhibited spirit of Dionysian revelry. The outer cup is richly chased and cast with vivid mythological figures—grapevines, satyrs, and sensual scenes allude to Bacchic rites, with expressive anatomy and dynamic compositions. A collector's centerpiece, it bridges classical themes and modern silversmithing with remarkable craftsmanship.
