Kapati textile - Epoque Byzantine; 4th–5th Century C.E
Located in Bruxelles, BE
Kapati Textile
Byzantine Period; 4th–5th Century C.E.
Materials: Plant and Animal Fibers, Wool
9,5 x 9,5 cm
This woolen fabric is woven in the traditional Coptic Kapati style, characteristic of Egypt during the Christian era. The name "Kapati" refers to the Copts of Egypt and describes a weaving technique that does not use embroidery or printing. It is said that Al-Muqawqis, the governor of Egypt, offered the Prophet garments made from Kapati fabric.
At the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris, the French archaeologist Albert Gayet showcased the results of his excavations from the winter of 1898-1899. Around one hundred Coptic textiles and fragments were displayed at the Palais du Costume. Their aesthetic generated considerable enthusiasm, particularly among artists like Auguste Rodin and Henri Matisse. This led to a "Coptomania," which, among other things, influenced fashion designers.
The square fragment features black decoration on a beige background; the two squares at the center are separated by scalloped edges, from which hang various ornaments or geometric motifs. At the center of the fragment is an image of a dancing figure surrounded by geometric decorations. This piece dates back to a time when ancient...

Apulian Kylix – South Italian Greek Pottery Antiquities 4th Century BC
Located in London, GB
Apulian Geometric Kylix – South Italian Greek Pottery, 4th Century BC
A fine Apulian kylix from South Italy, dating to the 4th century BC, decorated in a bold geometric leaf/foliate motif typical of the Apulian workshops. This elegant drinking cup features a shallow bowl, graceful elongated handles with upturned ends, and a low foot—classic elements of the South Italian Greek kylix form.
The exterior displays a warm natural clay ground contrasted with strong black-painted decoration, while the interior is finished in a rich, lustrous black slip. The combination of geometric leaf stylisation and refined proportions places this kylix within the later phase of Apulian regional production. the style developed in Athens and later was widely adopted by Greek colonies in Southern Italy. Apulian vase...
