Neatly Crafted Footed Bowl. Roman, c. 2nd-4th century AD. Blown from a pale leaf green glass, the bowl with full, almost cylindrical body on folded, flaring foot. The bowl's mouth everted, with two thin bands of trailed glass encircling below. Intact and perfect. The pristine bowl with some cleanable dirt, along with opaque creme and transparent iridescence in colorful greens, magentas, blues and violets. Diameter: 4-5/8". Surprisingly symmetrical for these often erratically shaped pieces, this a choice example.
Estimated Value $450 - 550.
Said to have been acquired in Istanbul in 1970.
