Lot 449
Finely Iridescent "Amhoriskos." Roman, c. 2nd to 3rd century AD. Height: 4-1/2". The vessel of tapering conical form, with sharply angled shoulders, short neck, flat everted mouth with rolled rim, and slightly indented base. Blown from light green glass, bottle intact and perfect. Part of one side with crusty patina (from water deposits?), and the other with silvery iridescence supporting a colorful range of bright golds, greens, cobalts, and magentas. A fine piece - the shape classic, and the iridescence eye catching!
Estimated Value $450 - 650.
