Potters added handles and mouths to molded clay parts, creating small numbers of nearly identical mass-produced vessels. This video focuses on an ancient Athenian drinking cup from about 470 B.C., made, in part, by molding. It was designed in the shape of two joined heads: the hero Herakles, and a woman. This presentation explains the cup's construction, painting, and firing. Love art?
