Greek octopus cup

Postby VictoriaBaz » Thu Mar 17, 2022 7:34 am

Hello everyone!
I wonder if someone could help me identify the maker of this spectacular cup (it is a copy of an ancient Greek gold piece from the Dendra tholos).
It is 21 cm in diameter and weighs 400 grams.
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
Embedded your image with the mark.
The cup is kept in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens.
The maker is TDL in Hellenic (center) unknown to me.
The inscription on the left in Hellenic is ``hand made``.
Regards
