Handle from Red-Figure Kylix (Drinking Cup), c. 480 BC. Greece, Athens, 5th Century BC. Ceramic; diameter: 29.6 cm (11 5/8 in.). The Cleveland Museum of Art, Hinman B. Hurlbut Collection 1915.718.b Although very similar to the ancient handle tip that it was used to replace, the drill holes in this fragment suggest that it was attached in modern times (before 1915). It was removed during an extensive conservation treatment in 1990. Originally from a different kylix, this handle tip was used in a modern repair.
