Lot 4820
Lot of Five Unguentaria, Some with Fine Iridescence. Roman, c. 1st to 2nd century AD. Heights: 3-3/4" - 5-3/4". All pieces are in pale green, or aqua, glass and in the usual shapes seen elsewhere in the collection -- with long tubular necks, and globular, piriform, or hemispherical bodies. The mouths funnel to flat, everted rolled rims. Two pieces show a silvery-violet iridescence and one has areas of fairly vivid green with some red-copper hues. All are intact and perfect. A pleasant group of 5 vials.
Estimated Value $200 - 400.
