Greek vase

VCollector:
Hello,

Could u say me more details about this greek vase? Thanks.

Jay GT4:
It says it is a copy of a Corinthian vase.  I did a quick google search.  I didn't find an exact match but the lions are of similar style. 

SC:
It looks like a high end tourist item.  It appears to be hand painted.

Not what you would find in a typical tourist shop in Greece today, more like in a museum replicas store.  But is the type of thing found in tourist shops decades ago.

Thank you very much. I updated post with better photos. I bought it on antique market. I can see that there are scuffs on the vase, as if it were the original. But I did not find same original vase.
