Item Details

Description

Rome, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A green glass stirring rod, its shaft of a finely twisted design with a substantive round disk at one end (presenting a swirled pattern that continues to the twisted body) and a loop handle similar to a shepherd's crook at the other, formed by bending the rod back upon itself while molten and attaching to the other side. While its exact use is unclear to us today, it may have been used to stir honey, cosmetics, or medical preparations. Size: 4.125" L (10.5 cm)

There is a similar example example at the British Museum (1894.1101.711), and one at the Science Museum, London (A163578).
