It is an ancient artwork collected by the Academic Art Museum of Bonn University. The vessel depicting the image of bass was made between 550 BC and 600 BC, and is likely to have been discovered in Nocratis. Made of glazed pottery with a blue-green surface, this material floats on quartz sand during the firing process, forming a texture similar to glaze. Glazed pottery was already produced in Egypt around 4000 BC, and there was a proposal from Naukratis to establish a workshop. However, this work is likely to have been produced in the Eastern Greek region, and there have been proposals to establish a studio in Rhodes. It showcases the image of the Egyptian god Bess, who is a deity with the ability to ward off evil spirits.
