This bowl is in Kamares style, it has a polychrome decoration, 2 handles and a pourer, the Kamares style spread from 2000 to 1700 BC and took its name from the place of the first discovery, in fact Kamares is the location of an archaeological site located in South-central Crete, Greece. Many of these vases were traded throughout the Mediterranean, spreading the Cretan taste of the first phase of the Middle Minoan.

The original piece is kept on the island of Crete at the Heraklion museum.

This ceramic was created and decorated entirely by hand (without the use of the wheel). It was then subjected to an antiquing process and finally cooked at a temperature of 950 for approximately 15 hours.
