 At the time of their production, Kerch style vases were exported to all of the Mediterranean region, but unlike earlier phases, the Black Sea area was the main market for this late phase of Attic pottery export.Most of the previously current vase shapes were still painted, but "kraters", "lekanes" (see Typology of Greek Vase Shapes) and "pelikes" were especially popular.The motifs are mostly scenes from the life of women (often exaggeratedly idyllic), dionysiac themes and subjects to do with Artemis and Demeter.
