English: This two-handled vase, known as a kylix, is a type of kylix known as an eye cup, resembling a mask with eyes over the face of the drinker when raised to drink from. The vase shows an early depiction of the Sirens as having women's heads and the bodies of birds. The simple, black-slip interior reveals several small holes around the handles that were used for repairs in antiquity. On the exterior, a similar composition dominates each side of the vase in a single band. Between two large eyes stands a siren; on one side, the siren faces frontally to the right, on the other side, she turns her head, looking back. Their full wings are simply drawn, with bands of added red pigment. Beneath their feet runs a simple ground line of black glaze. Above each siren are traces of an inscription, perhaps the signature of the potter or painter, though it is no longer readable.
