Item Details
Description
Ampoule-perfumery. Rome, 2nd-1st century BC.
Blown glass.
In very good condition.
Attached is a report issued by Ricardo Batista Noguera, former director of the Archaeological Museum of Barcelona, of the Archaeological Museum of Olérdola (Barcelona), of the Archaeological Museum of Catalonia and municipal archaeologist of Tossa de Mar.
Measurements: 18 x 13 cm.
A fine example of a globular perfume bottle with a globular body, a high neck and a mouth with a lip with a rim. Its use was to contain or store perfumes or essences and it formed part of the dressing table of a well-to-do Roman lady. Given its excellent state of preservation and knowing the customs of the time, we believe that it was part of the owner's grave goods when she died. It is therefore an archaeological find from a necropolis.
