I really like this bowl made in late Middle Jomon Period (ca. 2500-1500 B.C.), Ca. 1500 B.C. i like this one because it is deep and it's not just strait it is curvy with what i think is awesome side handles.

What i like the most about this blue Cup is that it is wide and has a thin small foot. i also enjoy the two handles. it was made in Greek, Athens, late 6th Century BC.

Out of all the pictures i looked at this one was my favorite i like the face on it and the way it sorta tells a story i also like the fact that it has a lot of colors and that there may or may not have a lid. this is a Pharmacy Jar, made in the late 15th centuryItalian (Naples). this piece of art has the most unique qualities to it.

I really like this piece because it has the Greek look. I also think that this cup has more characteristics of a bowl. I also think that the rough edge and the colors make it look more like an ancient antique. 

I really like the design of this piece but I am not quite sure as to what it is used for. I think it is the two holes in the center is what is throwing me off. I also really like the color that are used it reminds me of cave man drawings. 

What caught my attention on this piece was the legs at the bottom. Another thing that I really like is the tribal art work around it. Plus the colors add to the effect that it is something tribal. 

What I really like about this bowl is the simplicity of this. I really like the painted lines around the edge. I like that there some lines that are thicker and some are really thin, and there is some loops and spots that also make the it look simple.
