A [Lebes gamikos](http://vocab.getty.edu/page/aat/300265007) is a Greek wedding gift. Its role was to carry the water which was sprinkled over the bride in the ceremony. [Red figure painting](http://vocab.getty.edu/page/aat/300020201) was an invention of the Athenians in the sixth-century BC. South Italian Greek colonies, including [Apulia](http://www.geonames.org/3169778/puglia.html), continued red-figure vase production after its decline in Athens. There are painted scenes on either side of the object. On one, a woman seated on a rock cradles a dish and on the other, a winged Eros, god of love, clutches a mirror in his right hand. Both figures have rounded bodies, necklaces, bracelets and anklets. Eros wears a beaded bandolier.
