Physical DescriptionPossibly Fragment of Bottle. Transparent green over colorless, both with few minute bubbles. Blown, applied, and cut. Bottle (?): cylindrical. Wall vertical (Th. 0.2 cm). Decorated with pad of green glass (Th. 0.05 cm), which was at least 4.5 cm wide and 4.7 cm high, and is linear-cut. Pad is too fragmentary to permit identification of motif with certainty (but see below). At assumed top right, one green dot at center of circular or roughly circular area cut through to colorless; projecting from circular area toward left, large green lunette with straight upper surface and one curved and one straight cut on interior; below lunette, large irregular green area with several cuts; and at left edge of pad, element with vertical left edge and one (or possibly two) triangular projections toward right.Provenance
