‪Fascinating world of ancient #glass: this absolutely stunning #Roman ribbed bowl was unearthed fully intact with little to no wear during excavations in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Monochrome ribbed bowls made of brightly coloured glass were very popular throughout the Roman empire in the 1st century AD.
They were also exported beyond the empire’s eastern frontier and have been found in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India.
