Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $1200**

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. late 3rd to early 5th century CE. A marvelous example of a double unguentarium, free blown from semi-translucent glass of a vibrant turquoise hue, used by women for containing two different types of scented perfumes in their bathrooms. The thick-walled composition is constructed with two cylindrical containers - one wide and one narrow - that are laterally conjoined and share a pinched base with a pontil scar. A trail handle atop the slender tube enables the vessel to be easily held, and several glass trails course around the body to create an enticing presentation. The single handled design of this vessel is not indicative of being defective but is likely a stylistic choice by the artist, perhaps to create a unique look for their brand of artistry or because a customer commissioned such a design. Size: 1.5" W x 3.6" H (3.8 cm x 9.1 cm); 4" H (10.2 cm) on included custom stand.

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

Condition

Chipping and losses to some trailed details as shown. Minor abrasions to base, handle, and both containers, with light encrustations and weathering film, and micro-bubbling within the glass matrix, otherwise intact and very good. Light silvery iridescence throughout. Only one handle was ever applied to this vessel; no evidence of a second handle is present on the opposite side of the upper body.
