Item Details
Description


Originally offered at $1,000...

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 3rd to 4th century CE. A free-blown glass cup bearing several intricately etched linear and circular decorations around the exterior walls. The vessel bears a slightly concave base, tall walls, and a flared rim with a fire-polished lip. Six bullseye-form circles etched around the upper half of the walls imbue the cup with an ocular presentation, and beneath are dozens of diagonal striations that create a sense of movement across the lower body. Size: 2.75" W x 2.625" H (7 cm x 6.7 cm)

Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010

#157472
Condition
Minor nicks to lip, with softening to some etched details, and light micro-bubbling within glass matrix, otherwise intact and very good. Nice preservation of etched details and light iridescence throughout.
