Roman Glass Oinochoe Pinched Nob Body
Item Details
Description
Roman Imperial Period, ca. 2nd to 4th century CE. A skillfully free-blown glass oinochoe with aqua hues and a graceful form that sits on a flat base. The spherical body rises upward with several pinched ribs encircling the exterior. The tubular neck extends into a trefoil spout and a thick trail handle joins rim to body. Silvery iridescence permeates this elegant piece, adding to its lovely coloration. A fine example of Roman glassware. Size: 2.75" W x 4.125" H (7 cm x 10.5 cm)

Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010

Condition
Stable fissures to body. Surface wear, nicks, and abrasions commensurate with age. Faint pontil mark on underside of base. A pontil scar or mark indicates that a vessel was free-blown, while the absence of such a mark suggests that the work was either mold-blown or that the mark was intentionally smoothed away or wore away over time. Earthen encrustations and silvery iridescence throughout.
