Descripción : Roman Empire, ca. 1st to 2nd century CE. Among the most desirable colors of all those made in ancient Rome! Small deep bowl called a patella with short rolled foot, collared rim and rounded sides in a stunning cobalt blue glass. Size: 2.875 W x 1.625 H (7.3 cm x 4.1 cm) Glass was first discovered by the ancient Egyptians and archaeologists have found glass beads dating to as early as the third millennium BCE. The Romans produced glass all over their expanded empire with production centers in the Levant, especially Syria and Lebanon, as well as Germany, Egypt, and Rhodes.
