Wall fragment of stand from near top with start of projecting rim.

Black bands on inside. Glaze abraded in places. P.H. 0.085.

Upper parts of two Doric columns, one column slightly behind the other. Each column has a necking ring decorated with an egg pattern. Above, laurel wreath to right, then a zone of upright encircled palmettes and lotuses. Relief contour. Dilute glaze: flutes of right column.

For the columns, the closest parallel seems to be Ferrara 44894 = T.57 C VP by the Kleophon Painter (ARV2 1143, 1; Paralip. 455, 1; Addenda 334; Matheson, Polygnotos, p. 406, cat. no. KL 1, pl. 125). Each has necking rings decorated with an egg pattern and flutes with distinct arrises. On 128, each flute is rounded at the top; on Ferrara 44894 = T.57 C VP, each is squared off at the top. For the palmettes and lotuses, see Palermo 2162 = 616 (ARV2 1145, 38; Paralip. 456, 38; Addenda 335; Matheson, p. 415, cat. no. KL 44). 128 may be by the Kleophon Painter, but without more to go on, it is difficult to be certain.
