Roman Glass Vase - G.0058 - For Sale

Roman Glass Vase - G.0058
Price: $3000.00
A long neck with an everted lip is supported by an ovoid body. Iridescent silver blends with a myriad of other radiant colors to produce a dazzling effect like a spectrum of pure light molded into glass. Though colored glass had been produced for centuries, it was still regarded as a luxury item. This very lovely vessel would probably been owned by a wealthy family, perhaps used to hold precious ointments or perfume. Though the liquid is long vanished-- the substance of this vessel, i.e. its rare beauty, is as vibrant today as it was hundreds of years ago. - (G.0058)
