Amphoriskos, 3rd-4th century A.D. Additional Info: Free-blown amphoriskos of semi-opaque white glass that imitates alabaster. The body is round and squat and decorated with a trail applied in a zig-zag pattern. The trail is further decorated with stipples. The rim is folded over the inside edge and the handle joins the shoulder to the rim. Light weathering around the neck gives some iridescence.
