Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $400**

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 4th century CE. An elegant mold-blown glass sprinkler flask boasting a translucent hue of light olive. The ancient vessel displays a spherical body, a long, tubular neck, and a corseted, flared rim, all sitting upon a convex base. A gorgeous, zigzagged pattern decorates the body. A diaphragm is contained within the flask at the junction of the neck and body, allowing valuable liquid to be poured out drop by drop. Sprinkler flasks were designed to conservatively dispense precious scented oils and perfumes while concurrently mitigating the rapid evaporation of its contents. A stunning rainbow-hued iridescence highlights the vessel's graceful form. Size: 2" in diameter x 3.25" H (5.1 cm x 8.3 cm)

Provenance: private Corpus Christi, Texas, USA estate collection, acquired 1960s to 1970s
