About the work

Late Roman–Early Byzantine Glass Double Cosmetic Vessel

A double cosmetic vessel in green glass, formed with two adjoining tubular compartments, rounded bases, and thickened, outward-flaring rims. A fine applied glass trail encircles the upper body, adding a delicate decorative accent to its compact form.

The surface displays extensive tan encrustation and patches of shimmering iridescence, revealing blue-green and silvery tones beneath.

Height: 3 7/8 inches.

Provenance: Ex Sami Taha collection, Israel. Imported from Israel with export approval.
