Product Details
Late Roman Period 300 – 600 CE, 6.4” Inches High and 2.5” Inches Wide,
The piece is in very good condition, featuring a beautiful silver patina. It is free-blown and has a pear-shaped body resting on a disc foot, with a long neck and an everted rim. Applied turquoise glass zigzag trails run down the sides of the body. Additionally, it has twin looped handles and a decorative collar around the neck and under the rim.
In the middle of the 1st century BC, just as Rome was emerging as the Mediterranean’s dominant political, military, and economic power, a technique pioneered by Syrian craftsmen arrived: glassblowing. It revolutionized the industry overnight, allowing the Romans to produce glass much more quickly, at a fraction of the cost and on a vast scale.
