Fragment of a Mold for a Bowl with Relief Decoration

Fragment of a terracotta mold for making red-gloss ware bowls with relief decoration. The designs are stamped into the negative mold. Below an egg-and-dart pattern, the surface is subdivided by beaded lines. A semicircular wreath or garland is visible on the left; on the right is a winged female figure in a belted and flounced dress, standing frontally with the weight on her left leg and her head turned right. Holding a palm branch in one hand and a (laurel?) wreath in the other, she represents Victory. To her left runs the stamp of the mold maker Cinnamus: CINNAM[I]. The clay is relatively coarse, with a gray core and significant mica.
