Item Details

Description

Roman, Eastern Roman Empire, late Imperial Period, ca. 3rd to 4th century CE. A free-blown plate composed of translucent, pale yellow-green glass with an applied ring base and rough pontil scar, wide walls which form the shallow basin with a prominent central kick, and a flared rim with a raised ring around the discoid lip. The vessel is covered in thick areas of silvery and rainbow-hued iridescence which nicely complement the plate's soft spring colors. Size: 7.375" W x 1.25" H (18.7 cm x 3.2 cm).

For a stylistically-similar example with a deeper basin, please see "Shining Vessels: Ancient Glass from Greek, Roman and Islamic Times." Fortuna Fine Arts, Ltd., New York, 1991, p. pp. 96-97, fig. 181.
