Early Imperial Glass Tableware in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, June 2010


Early Imperial Glass Tableware
Roman, cast, 1st half of 1st century AD
Accession Numbers: 81.10.128, 12.212.1, 17.194.1481, 59.11.6
Although inspired by late Hellenistic cast tableware, vessels such as these display the characteristic shape and design of Roman glassware. Their carinated profiles resemble those of contemporary silver and pottery vessels, while the colors and patters are much more vivid and varied than in their Hellenistic predecessors.
