Object Description
A fine Ancient Roman green glass jar. The vessel features a wide globular body, which narrows to a short cylindrical neck with a slightly flared mouth. The neck sits on the body at a slight angle. The body is decorated with a maroon two-spiral trail applied horizontally around its circumference, which leads to a blue and maroon zig-zag pattern around the lower sides of the body. The jar rests on a slightly concave base. Some iridescence is visible across the neck.
Date: Circa 3rd – 4th Century AD
