Product Details

Early Roman 300 - 500 C.E., 2.7” Inches High and 2.9” Inches Wide 

Intact in very good condition.

This ancient Roman glass ointment jar showcases a stunning green color. It has a broad, round body, a short cylindrical neck, and a wide collared mouth. The blue handles are applied to the shoulders and extend upward to 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.
