- Lot Description
Roman, Imperial period, Eastern Mediterranean, ca. 3rd to 4th century CE. A gorgeous jar free-blown from light green glass to present a thick trailing that zigzags between the shoulder and rim to form an openwork collar. The vessel displays a piriform body rising to a short cylindrical neck that gently flares to a folded rim. Finally, as the piece de resistance, thick undulating trails run from rim to the shoulder and marvelous silver and blue violet iridescence kisses the surface! Size: 2.8" Diameter x 3.3" H (7.1 cm x 8.4 cm)
Similar glass vessels can be found at the Corning Museum of Glass (74.1.26 and 53.1.6), Johns Hopkins Archaeological Museum (JHAM HT 127), and the Science Museum London (A54786).

#177403Intact and excellent with rich weathering film, slight iridescence, and earthen deposits in areas. Pontil mark on underside of base. A pontil scar or mark indicates that a vessel was free-blown, while the absence of such a mark suggests that the work was either mold-blown or that the mark was intentionally smoothed away or wore away over time.Condition
