Roman Glass, ca AD 3rd-4th
century width: 5.8 cm (at base) height: 7.1 cm I am going to assume that this glass vial was meant to have its nozzle a bit off center to facilitate pouring. Otherwise, this was made by an apprentice. Fully intact. |

century width: 3.0 cm (at base) height: 3.6 cm Nice wide base example of early Roman glass bottle. These small vials were used to hold cosmetics, medicine, poisons, dyes and perfumes. This group was unearthed in an ancient Greek Bactria site in present day Afghanistan and was part of the Abrahami collection. There is an old hairline crack from the rim to the center. |

Roman Glass, ca AD 3rd-4th
century width: 3.8 cm (at base) height: 7.1 cm A slender Roman glass vial with a ribbed external surface around the base. The textures were for more than appearances. In the dark, you could feel the difference in bottles. Fully intact. A bit of a challenge to stand as the remnants of glass-blowing slightly protrude from the base. |
