Large and stunning! From ancient Rome, ca. 1st century AD. Light green drinking glass in typical form with faint wheel cut lines below rim and covered throughout with gorgeous silvery iridescence. Offered to us as ex-Pompeii, which is possible but unlikely, but still a large and fine example! 4"H, intact/generally quite excellent.
