**A Glass Juglet Covered with Silver Patina**
*Roman Period, ca. 3rd-4th century CE*
This beautifully crafted juglet, with its cylindrical body neck, and inverted rim, exemplifies the artistry of the Roman Period. Glass was a luxurious material in antiquity, often used to hold the most esteemed and precious substances. Imagine the stories this vessel could tell about its contents during a time when Rome was at its peak.
Consider who might have held its elegant handle, pouring out its treasured offerings for a gathering or a special occasion. Though the juglet may appear empty today, it invites us to fill it with our creativity and imagination.
