**First Time At Auction**

Roman, Imperial period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A stunning trio of glass flasks, all boasting elegant silhouettes with towering, slender necks and flared spouts. Formed from blue green glass, each displays a similar form with a squat body and a concave base, yet still showcase distinct differences that add to their uniqueness: the largest exhibits a corseted neckline and a folded rim, the most petite shows a funnel-shaped spout, and the mid-size presents the most delicate form with the thinnest neck of all 3. Gorgeous flakes of purple and rainbow iridescence scatter the surface of each, imbuing them with an opulent presentation evocative of the Roman Empire! Size: 1.8" W x 7.1" H (4.6 cm x 18 cm)

Provenance: private Lemont, Illinois, USA collection, acquired in the 1980's

All have light surface wear commensurate with age, but are otherwise intact and excellent. Nice weathering film and areas of beautiful iridescence with some minor flaking to mid-size flask.
