You can place an order for vases with a green basket icon. To do so, you can request information using the button located below the image.
If you would like to order black- or red-figure vases, you can check the images featured in printed or digital magazines. If there is a basket icon, you can send its number and request a price. Alternatively, you can search for images online using the keywords "kyliks" or "kylix" and list the results. You may then send the link of the webpage containing the vase image you like via email, as provided in the contact section, to request a price. If you wish, you can also directly place an order. Additionally, you may share a mythological story you love or a topic you are interested in and choose from the samples sent to you accordingly.
For now, only two forms are available: one is a "kylix," and the other is a standard plate. During the decoration phase, ceramic techniques are used, and the paint applied during the drawing process is fired again along with the glaze.
Since the ceramics are entirely custom-made according to individual preferences, they are non-refundable, except in cases of possible damage during shipping. As the order requires a production process, including drawing, painting, and firing in a glaze kiln, it takes at least 3-4 weeks from the confirmation date of the order.

“ποιητικά”
First of all, it is useful to explain the word "Poietika." This word is the plural and neuter form of the adjective "ποιητικός" (poietikos), which is derived from the Ancient Greek verb "ποιεῖν" (poiein), meaning "to create." While its core meaning is "to create," today it is mostly used in the context of art, especially literary genres.
Although these meetings are primarily based on Ancient Greek theater and literature, the main visual support comes from Ancient Greek vase paintings. This might seem inconsistent with the meaning and usage of the word "poietika." However, it is important to note that vases also bear inscriptions. For instance, vases often include signatures that make it seem as if the vase itself is speaking, with inscriptions like "Ergotimos made me, and Kleitias painted me." The word "made" used here is a derivative of the Ancient Greek verb "ποιεῖν," which also means "to create." Therefore, this word is used not only to define a literary work and its creator but also to describe the creator of a vase. Since the foundation of these meeting series and their written documentation—both printed and digital magazines—rests on Ancient Greek theater, literature, and vases, the word "poietika" can be used to encompass all of them. Additionally, words like "poet" and "poetry" are also derived from this verb.
