Analyse esthétique et formelle
A fascinating precursor to our modern--day teapot, the liquids of the Amlash culture could be warmed in the clay container and poured through the orifice in the horse's head. Fashioned of warm terracotta, its simple curves, appealing round shape, strength and charm have transported it from the mystical past, so that it can continue to delight the beholder of today.
